kendal - land art starts our count down


The KWoA Landmark team is also working with communities as they prepare to welcome the Torch Relay in Kendal, Milnthorpe, Ambleside and Grasmere, providing creative opportunities to share Landmark artwork with wider community audiences.
We start our count down to the Torch Relay in Kendal.


One of the first groups to work with KWoA were Art and Design students at Kendal College who came to outdoor workshops at the Appleby Road Community garden at Queen Katherine School, organised through collaboration with local charity Chestnut Events.


The college has a wide catchment area, with students travelling from and through stunning Cumbrian landscapes to study in Kendal. Inspired by these local outdoor environments, the students created striking temporary sculptures using a range of natural resources found onsite.













Thanks to Jan from the Chestnut Events charity who in addition to helping to arrange the workshops, brought everyone hot chocolate to warm us up on a cold day!
