Make My Day! 2017
Make My Day! 2017 delivered an inspiring programme of creative activities enjoyed by young and old alike; with workshops that included; sculpture making with recycled wood, spray painting placards, mini-boat collaging, a giant paint-by-numbers, large-scale collaborative collaging, junk animal mask-making, papercut animation making and Van Dyke photography printing.
The creative activities were complimented by a wonderful, eclectic line up of acoustic music, beautiful shimmering dance performance and walk-about daftness.
“Incredible collection of activities. Well done everybody involved. I didn’t want to go home. It was like a creative theme park. Absolutely brilliant! I’m looking forward to next year already. Well worth the short journey from Rawtenstall!”
