Sculpture Projects - your village needs you!
We intend to create a community installation of David Bowie’s “Star Man” face. This will be exhibited as part of the Open Gardens and Sculpture event on 8-9 June. The face will be completed using a mosaic of plastic bottle tops. Can you please collect as many plastic bottle tops as possible and leave them at 2, The Old Apple Store. We need these as soon as possible in order to leave time to construct the face.
We are planning to host a Creative Event on 25 May. This will take place alongside the Church Coffee Morning on 25 May at Holly Tree House. Please come along (children too) to help make this iconic face.
Coming Soon
