Sculpture Project with Donna- Creative Scene
Over the Summer holiday, we worked with Creative Scene artist, Donna. The young people visited Yorkshire Sculpture Park with their families and Donna, for inspiration which led to them creating their own sculptures.
The project was aimed at young people aged 5-16years old, and engaged them over four days: |

Day 1- Workshop with Donna around taking inspiration from what we see around us. Day 2- Supplied with clipboards paper and pens we went to Yorkshire Sculpture Park to take inspiration from sculptures. Day 3- Back at Ravensthorpe CC using what we drew, and remembered we made our own sculptures. Day 4 – Painted to finish our masterpieces. |
