Summer has whisked by, leaving behind a trail of vibrant memories, creative escapades, and unforgettable collaborations, all fueled by the incredible support from the National Lottery Community Fund. At Youth Art Connect, we’ve been on a whirlwind journey filled with art, diversity, and growth, all with a generous splash of fun. Let’s dive into the sizzling highlights that made this summer unforgettable!
Express Yourself: Unleashing Artistic Superpowers!
Thanks to the another Fund, we unleashed our 6 week Express Yourself courses in St Austell, Newquay, and Penryn. These weren’t just any courses β they were like unlocking hidden artistic superpowers! Young individuals dove headfirst into creative expression, building their resilience and emotional muscles through art. The response? Simply astounding! It turns out, everyone needs a little creative magic in their lives.
Urban Sketch Days: Sketching Our Way Across Cornwall!
Our Urban Sketch Days were a whirlwind adventure across six different Cornish towns. We laughed, sketched, and sipped on creativity, all thanks to the support from the National Lottery Community Fund. Together, we captured the essence of Cornwall, one doodle at a time. It’s safe to say, there’s something about sketching that brings out the best in people!
Cornwall Tattoo Convention: Where Artistry Meets Community!
Our debut at the Cornwall Tattoo Convention was a celebration of artistic expression, individuality, and community. We reveled in the dazzling inked artwork and showcased how creativity is a language we all speak, with a little help from the National Lottery Community Fund. Tattoos, drawings, and painted smiles β the convention was a gallery of artistic diversity.
Rockstar Collaborations: Teaming Up with Local Artists!
We jammed with local artists like Sam Bradbury and Clementine Neild this summer, with the backing of the National Lottery Community Fund. Their artistry collided with our young creatives, creating sparks of inspiration that ignited the canvas. These partnerships were like a creative supernova β brilliant, unforgettable, and oh-so-fun!
Youth Art Connect at Cornwall Pride: Colors, Love, and Art!
Cornwall Pride was our mid-summer carnival of colors, love, and artistic expression, all made possible by the National Lottery Community Fund. We danced, sang, and paraded in a celebration of diversity and inclusivity. Our artistry was not just on canvas; it was in the air, in our hearts, and in the smiles of all who joined us.
As the sun sets on this epic summer, Youth Art Connect continues to be the go-to hub for young adventurers seeking creative superpowers. We’ve splashed, sketched, danced, and laughed our way through a season of growth, inspiration, and vibrant self-expression, all thanks to the National Lottery Community Fund.
But this is just the beginning! We’re revving up for more fun, more colour, and more art adventures, supported by our friends at the National Lottery Community Fund. Thank you to our incredible participants, partners, and supporters who’ve made this summer an extraordinary journey. Together, we’ll keep painting a world more beautiful, one artistic stroke at a time. Get ready for the next chapter β it’s going to be a blast! ππ¨π
