Re: We need something like this in Accy
It's in Barrowford at Higherford Mill.
The man is Julian Beever and Mid Pennine Arts have brought him over to create a new piece of artwork inside the mill. He's starting on Wednesday afternoon and he'll be drawing until Saturday afternoon 10am - 4pm each day. It is open to the public as he's working and all of the artist studios in the building will also be open. Please come along and see it. |

Re: We need something like this in Accy
The mill will also be open on the Sunday, 10am - 4pm.
As it's done in chalks it won't be around for long afterwards. Plus, I don't know what will happen about access after the Sunday so I'd try and see it at the weekend if possible. I should point out in case anyone resurrects this thread in a few years time again, it is 22nd - 25th March 07, that he'll be around. |

Re: We need something like this in Accy
Nip round to the nearest school you will find enough young artists there to decorate the town centre willingly!!!
 Especially if you are providing the spray cans etc and they wont get done of the community cops.I think these are very good they would decorate any town centre why not instead of chalk use paints - hard wearing ones so then its permanent.
