THORNTON HEATH
ARTS WEEK
Take Another Look
THANK YOU TO ALL OUR ARTISTS AND SUPPORTERS
WELCOME TO THE THIRD THORNTON HEATH ARTS WEEK! The week certainly highlights the wealth of creativity that we have within our community. Continuing from the success of the past two years, new talent has emerged, excitingcollaborative ideas developed and the importance of the Arts is being recognised in regeneration processes.
The Art Weeks success is in its committed, collective approach. Artists of all disciplines working together, combined with the continued generosity and support of the local community and venues without which we would not function. Its strong community links enable the creative projects to continue and develop throughout the year.
We hope you are inspired watching and creating Films, Art, Poetry, Photography, Drama, Dance, Music and Radio: there really is something for all. Everyone’s commitment makes things happen and together look what we can achieve!
