Studio Highlight: Our member recently made her first mosaic!

Jessie says:
“I wanted to try and create something that I hadn’t before, I have always been in admiration of tiles and wanted to explore Mosaics. Arts Network gave me a place to do this and to teach me the skills and with encouragement that I wouldn’t have otherwise had. I combined my interests of swimming with the tiles and got to create a piece I’m really proud of.”

The mosaic was shared in our recent Community Showcase: 30 Years of Arts Network.

Arts Network has a long history of mosaic making, and we’re so happy to see this continue to grow! Thank you Jessie!

We organise regular trips for members to cultural venues and green spaces as part of our creative programme. With spring in the air we took a sunny afternoon trip to Wild Cat Wilderness - a community green space in Catford.

This is a place dear to our heart as the home for a beautiful Arts Network Mosaic Bench, and on this visit we got involved in their community project: Digging the Dirt.

We had the opportunity to learn about the importance of soil, and took part in an activity to paint and write messages on rocks inspired by the theme of soil.

A beautiful day 🪏💚🪱🌻
