AND we'll be sharing some REALLY exciting Create Sheffield news with you all 🤫

Friendly, informal, all welcome (no worries if you're not a current Create Sheffield partner) — whether you come to share, listen, make new connections, or you’re just in it for a biscuit fix (no judgement☕🍪).

✨ Create Sheffield Network Spotlight ✨

Every day, artists and creative professionals across Sheffield work to nourish creativity in children and young people's lives. Follow our series to meet them!

This time: Angie Hardwick 🏺- Ange Made Ceramics

Angie is a Sheffield-based ceramicist and visual artist who works with schools, community groups and cultural venues to create large-scale sculpture and ceramics.

Angie works with young people because she believes creativity builds confidence and pride: "I love enabling young people to creatively express themselves… [to] be proud of their achievements and have a sense of belonging", she says.

Her projects connect heritage, place and identity, and her generosity and artistic skill help young people connect with themselves.

In a recent project, Angie helped children aged 5-14 across Sheffield to make their own ceramic fishes — one to take home, and one that formed part of an installation in the Winter Gardens. In the installation, all the fish travel in the same direction apart from one. The message: it's OK to swim against the tide 🥳🐟

Then last year, Angie worked with Springfield Primary on a heritage-in-schools project coordinated by Create Sheffield in collaboration with Historic England & local heritage partners. Building on tailored heritage lessons, Angie supported pupils to make beautiful ceramic pieces of local buildings that meant something to them. Can you recognise which ones they are from the pics? 🤔

Thanks, Angie, for all that you do! 🙏

🔍 Explore Angie's other amazing projects or get in touch via her website at www.angiehardwick.co.uk, or at Ange Made Ceramics. Schools and community groups — if you'd like to work with Angie on a project, get in touch!
