Arts Activities and new Art Works for Whitworth

A number of interested parties are keen to find out if the people of Whitworth would like to see some arts activities and new art works along the existing Whitworth Cycleway.

Would you like to see groups of school children, community groups and active, interested people helping to create an exciting and interesting place where you can visit, walk, cycle and enjoy?

We have been asked to have a look at expanding the community's use of the cycleway alongside ways of enhancing the route, and want to find schools and groups that would be interested in taking part in a series of arts projects. Working alongside artists, the schools and groups would bring new life and interest to Whitworth.

Over the coming weeks, Helen Callaghan from our team will be exploring the possibilities for the site and the potential groups and schools that would like to be involved.

If you feel your group or school would like to take part in arts activities connected with this great community resource for Whitworth please feel free to email any questions (or opinions) to;  helen.callaghan@midpenninearts.org.uk
