SEA – Arty fundraiser for Brough Bay Association and Castletown Heritage Society
7th March 2014
We’re off of a brilliant start, with all our 170 MDF blank postcard size pieces of wood handed out or collected by locals from Caithness Horizons, St Fergus Art Gallery and Castlehill Heritage Centre in the first couple of weeks! We’re delighted with everyone’s enthusiasm to join in.
Now they are getting arty and inspired by the SEA, wonderful artwork has started to be returned and I’ve been adding images to the blog as it arrives. There is quite a variety of styles.
There is still plenty of time to get involved, but the sooner artwork is made and returned, the longer it will be admired on the fundraiser blog.
A few postcard size artworks have already arrived from the USA.
We’d love more folks to join in the arty fun, so don’t panic if you weren’t quick off the mark to pick up a free board, there’s full details on the blog.
