Pitscurry Public Art Project

On Saturday 10th September Pitscurry Environmental Project will be hosting a metal casting event and creating a public artwork for the garden as part of North East Open Studios.
Over the day we will be taking molds of hands and casting them in aluminium for an installation within the gardens.
Please come along and lend us your hands by contributing to the artwork. Learn how to make a mold and participate in a metal casting demonst...ration - for a donation of £10 to the project.

Artist Ginny Hutchison will be running two workshops, from 10am-12pm and 2-4pm.
15 places are available on each workshop, so please book ahead!

Also on Saturday 10th will be a woodcarving demonstration from artist Keiji Nagahiro, using both chainsaw and hand tools.

We have work on show and for sale, created by clients who attend the project, from drawings, prints and crafts, to bronze snails made in conjuction with SSW.

The project will also be open to the public from Monday 12th to Saturday 17th September, from 10am-3pm daily.

Entry is free, tea, coffee and cake available - we look forward to seeing you!
