Saturday is GIFTED hand in day. It’s that time of year again – the lead up to the Art Trail.
We are looking for a mixture of well established professional artists and first timers – people who have never quite got it together to submit.
Well now’s your chance.
Last year The Mill’s fantastic mixed exhibition “Making our Mark” had 55 pieces of work by 55 different artists, age range 7 years to 70 !
We had paintings, prints, photographs – even a piece of soft sculpture. Some of the works sold!
Lots of people came to see it and it was very popular on the trail.
We did make our mark.
Lets do even better this year. Anyone who lives in E17 can submit – but I am hoping to get a good turnout from our local Coppermill/Blackhorse Road/St James Street area.
We want every one to know just how talented and gifted you are!
