🎨Art Aspirations is coming to a market town near you this summer—and you could be part of it! 🎨
This summer, creativity is taking centre stage in East Lindsey’s market towns as Art Aspirations, a new community-led art initiative, launches across the district. Spearheaded by Kate Giffen, Place Officer for Market Towns, the project invites local artists and residents to collaborate on a series of vibrant workshops that will culminate in a powerful public artwork reflecting the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of each town.
Therefore we’re on the lookout for talented, community-minded artists based in Louth, Horncastle, Spilsby, Wainfleet, Alford, and Wragby to lead exciting collaborative art projects during the summer school holidays. If you have a strong connection to your chosen town or artistic medium, and you're available between 24th July and 4th September, we’d love to hear from you. We’re ideally seeking six artists, each working in each town, with a different artistic medium, to inspire and engage local communities through creative expression.
“This is more than just an art project,” says Kate Giffen. “It’s about giving people a voice through creativity and celebrating the unique identity of each town. We’re excited to see how local artists and communities will bring their visions to life and create a lasting creative legacy.”
Art Aspirations is proudly funded by the East Lindsey Investment Fund (ELIF), supporting cultural enrichment, community engagement and town footfall alongside the Vital and Viable towns initiative, across the region.
