Art'n About in Gala: Community Arts Extravaganza
and live on Freeview channel 276
Renowned artists will lead a series of sessions where imaginations can run wild: Julia Parks with animation, Claire Beattie with paint & collages, Ann-Louise with clay, and Katie Forbes with music. The event promises diverse experiences including opportunities to craft collaged birds, contribute to a giant painted landscape, engage in music sessions, explore animation, and shape clay into unique sculptures. The walls of the MacArts will showcase some of the amazing artwork created by members of the community and local artists at previous ‘Art n’ About in Gala’ events.
Supported by Energise Galashiels Trust, Scottish Borders Council, and South of Scotland Enterprise, 'Art'n About in Gala' continues to bring free, high quality arts experiences to residents and visitors to Galashiels. This latest event is hosted by MacArts where refreshments will be served all day. It promises to be the highlight of the half-term break, with fun and creativity guaranteed.
