Greenfield Arts’ male Cree volunteers had some fantastic achievements lately and were rewarded for all of their hard work with a well-deserved luxury spa day and meal.
The local male volunteers have been working with Greenfield Arts for over 3 years and have achieved so many things in this time including creating a public art installation on site called Nalu, building and designing a little free library space, creating a witch statue for the Beamish museum event, creating and producing some finale features for Cutting Loose and Quercus live and designing and building a new cupboard unit for our new creative space.
The men are a lovely bunch of people who are always looking for others to join us, to have ideas, have some chat and make things happen. There are always cups of tea and even the occasional bacon buttie! The project is funded by Public Health and East Durham Trust and developed by Greenfield Arts. It is a great way of getting involved, meeting others and making things happen in our community.
The group has also been nominated for two awards recently, the County Durham Volunteering awards and the Durham County Environment awards. We wish them all the best and if you are interested in getting involved drop by or come along to one of our sessions on Monday 10.30am -12pm at Greenfield Arts, Newton Aycliffe (www.greenfield-arts.co.uk)
