I’m organising a community art project to fund another Christmas lunch at No. 84 this year and I’d love as many people as possible to get involved – wherever you are in the world, whatever your your age, artistic skills, experience or ambitions. All you have to do is design a Christmas card and donate it to the project.
Designs will be made into A6 cards (at cost by Singlewell Stationery and Print http://www.singlewell.co.uk/) and sold in packs of 6, with all profits going to fund the 2019 Christmas lunch at No. 84. If we raise a lot of money, any extra will be donated to Crisis at Christmas.
Nearer to Christmas, we’ll have an exhibition of all the cards at No. 84 and a launch event. If loads of people get involved we could also have other exhibitions or events at local venues.
If you want to join in, here is what you have to do:
RULES
Only one – designs must be rectangular. They can be in any size and any medium because they are all going to be photographed.
Here is what I’ll do:

| Event Start Date: 23rd March 2019 | Event End Date: 23rd March 2019 | Event Venue: Manor Community Primary School, Keary Road, Swanscombe, DA10 0BU |
The gathering is a culmination of the Ebbsfleet Healthy New Town Programme, bringing together artists and local communities for a celebration of arts, creativity, food and well-being.
As part of the programme, three artists – Esther Collins, Nicole Collins and Siobhan Schwartzberg – have been working with local residents, community groups and schools across Ebsfleet Garden City since September 2018 to develop new collaborative artworks to be revealed at the GATHERING. Come and meet these artists and find out more about their work.
You can also take part in a range of ‘Have a go’ workshops, one of which will be led by me.
Have a go at making an edible sculpture, singing, drumming, Bhangra dancing or aerial acrobatics. Or for the less energetic, just decorate a plant pot, plant some seeds or sit back and enjoy some local food. There is something for all the family.
