The project has set up base in a disused infants’ school in the community, which was re-opened to the public by the project last year. Driven by the socially engaged practice of the artist Owen Griffiths, the school now runs weekly sessions with artists, collaborators and teachers. Described as a space for social learning, the school’s curriculum and activities explore making, skill sharing, art production, food and meals. It promotes engagement around land, play, ownership and collaboration, whilst establishing a long-term relationship with the community. This is creating a genuine collaboration (between community, artists and partners) and authoring sustainable opportunities for change.
