Droitwich goes art mad!
Now in its fourth year, Droitwich Spa Arts 4 All is back again and is bigger and better than before.
Taking place on Saturday 10 March from 12-4pm there will be displays, activities and events across the town this year, where celebrations where previously based purely at the theatre, as Droitwich goes art mad.
The Norbury Theatre in Friar St. opens its doors to reveal taster sessions and performances of puppetry, Irish dance, youth theatre, bands and singing with feature performances from The W Factor finalists 2012, Droitwich Rock Choir and the Lighthouse Street Puppets.
Visual art exhibitions will be on show at St Andrews Parish Centre including Elmbridge Art Club, Droitwich Spa Photographic Society and youth art at Spa Youth Zone.
Music in St Andrews Shopping Centre will feature folk singer Deborah Rose, hip hop band Case Closed, Abby Davies, Robinson and Tina V, who will be sharing their recent experience from a workshop with Jamie Callum.
The Gardeners Arms will have a sculpture garden, a live literary event from local poet Sarah James at Parks Cafe with children’s storytelling at 4 pm. The library will host a puppet show, choirs and drop-in writing workshop and will also reveal new proposals for a mural at Netherwich Basin. There’s something for all ages from young to old and best of all it’s all free.
There will also be snacks and refreshments will be available throughout the event at the theatre, Parks Café or from around the town.
Jenny Davis Arts Development Officer at Wychavon said “I am delighted that Droitwich Arts 4 All is here again and growing in size. It is so important that people know about the local artistic talent and have the opportunity to get involved. This growing talent will help support and promote Droitwich’s cultural and economic growth. It is going to be a great fun packed day with a fantastic line up.”
Peter Hawkins, Chair of Droitwich Arts Network added:” It is amazing how much talent is blooming in Droitwich Spa and the surrounding area it is great to be able to present it to the town on 10 March”
This project has been organised by Droitwich Arts Network, For Droitwich Spa, The Norbury Theatre and Wychavon District Council.
