Wednesday, March 14th - Mosaics and Horses

The next meeting of Starcross History has been re-arranged to be on Wednesday, March 14th, 7:30pm in St Paul's Church.

 Alma Harding and Joanne Bickel will lead a workshop to create:

•  mosaics; to mark a Starcross History Trail
• Horses from rubbish; for our 2018 entry in Teignmouth's Trail Recycled Art in the Landscape

They'll show you how easy it is to create outdoor mosaics which will last a few years. There will be mosaics in various stages of production with which you will be invited to help, or you can bring your own design(s) to work on.

There will be some horses made from all sorts of stuff-which-would-be-thrownaway:
Christmas lights that don't work make wacky manes&tails.

Mousedrawn Horse

 
A broken plastic washing basket might get bent to make a saddle.
Plastic stuff  won in Christmas crackers will add colour

Will you start/make a horse/horse's head/something to do with Horse - and bring it along? Any size - but your sculptures will be open to all the elements on Teignmouth seafront for the summer SO they must be secure and will have to be securely anchored down using fence posts with metal drive-in spikes.

T.R.A.I.L. is a protest about wasted resources. That our horse sculptures look out to sea  will speak of the galloping plastic pollution of the 5 oceans.

This meet will also be the agm, so copies of the constitution and the chair's report will be available. Perhaps there might be some volunteers to take on a committee rôle or 3?
