Arlington Arts Centre invites anyone and everyone to paint, print, draw, photograph a postcard-sized
piece of artwork on the theme of JOY, in aid of Arlington Arts and Mary Hare School. Artists, musicians, audience members, school students and staff, volunteers and supporters are being asked to donate their talents by creating a postcard, which will then be sold in aid of Mary Hare School for Deaf Children.
‘Can you help us raise funds and in the meantime do something creative and positive? Are you stuck at home and looking for something different to do? With spring in the air, and light at the end of the tunnel, we would like to invite you to create and donate a drawing, painting, print or photograph a postcard-sized piece of art on the theme of “Joy”. We will exhibit all entries online and in the foyer of Arlington Arts during April, and sell them for £20(inc VAT, postage and packaging), with all proceeds going to Mary Hare School for Deaf Children. We will also be asking the public to vote on their favourite pieces, and the top five will be printed as postcards and sold in aid of Mary Hare School for Deaf Children. Your work can be anonymous or not, you don’t have to be a practising artist, and you can use any medium you like as long as we can put it on the wall! There’s more information available at https://arlington-arts.com/postcards/. If you'd like to take part, please complete the entry form on our website by Monday 15th March If creating art isn’t your thing but you would be interested in seeing the work or even buying an original piece of artwork, look out on our website and social media in April!’ So, get thinking about what brings you joy? What does joy feel like? What is joy? A favourite place, a cup of tea with a friend, sunshine, a view, a pet, peace, dancing or even the thought of attending live events once restrictions are lifted…All profits from Arlington Arts Centre go directly to Mary Hare, a school and national charity supporting deaf children.
