Landscapes of the Mind
16. December,
11am
Education Studio, The Lightbox
FREE
Following the success of ‘Ways of Seeing’, ‘Landscapes of the Mind’ is a new FREE project at The Lightbox, for mental health service provision users.
At The Lightbox there is a wonderful collection of landscape paintings and drawings, as part of the Ingram Collection. There is the opportunity to learn about these and to get involved in a unique project that offers the opportunity to, with guidance from a tutor, create an exhibition. Participants will not only be making key decisions such as choosing the artworks to be included, but also will be creating responses to them by producing their own artwork, also to be included in the exhibition.
Participants don’t need to be tremendously skilled as an artist; all that is required is the enthusiasm in taking part!
If this is of interest to you or perhaps you have someone in mind, this is what The Lightbox is offering:
- A project where as far as possible, all the decisions about will be made by the participants.
- There is no charge to take part; in fact transport costs will be paid.
- Priority will be given to those who did not take part in our previous project, 'Ways of Seeing', but if there are places left then participants in that project can be involved in this one.
How to get involved
If you are at all interested please come along to the Education Studio at The Lightbox at 11.00am on Friday 16th December.
If you are interested but can’t make it to the meeting please contact Rib Davis, Special Projects Manager at The Lightbox, to say you would like to take part (rib.davis@thelightbox.og.uk 01483 737817).
‘Landscapes of the Mind’ is funded by the Happy Museum Project, which is funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation’s Breakthrough Fund. To find out more about the project and The Happy Museum please click here.
