We are so happy to introduce Julie Swinerton, Made by Jules as part of the Yeovil Art Weekender! 🌺

This project uses sustainable materials to create beautiful flowers made from reused aluminium drinks cans and waste electrical wire, with the aim to make ‘Yeovil bloom’, artistically and sustainably.

“‘Bloomin’ Yeovil is what most people say about our town, but I want us to envisage a wild flower meadow of community creativity”

Many school groups are taking part in Julie’s project and some wonderful participation from our Saturday Creative Drop-Ins. This beautiful installation will be on display for the Yeovil Art Weekender in St Johns Church for all to see.

Keep an eye on our socials and yeovilartspace.uk/artweekender for more updates and information.

This session will explore how music and sound shape outdoor arts, from street bands and drum groups to song, noise and rough music. Expect a short introduction followed by plenty of discussion, sharing ideas, and celebrating the power of sound in public spaces.
