Art Licks

An image from artist Jade de Montserrat’s 2023 residency at our project space on the North York Moors. The focus of this time was in the development of a new work: Black (re) turn, which was performed by the artist in one of our barns with support from the filmmakers Webb-Ellis.

Our latest project was with artist Charlotte Salt & @SchoolGillamoor. The whole school took part (5-11yrs) in a series of workshop to make ceramic artworks that celebrate village landmarks: artlicks.com/projects/celeb… It was lots of fun! Thanks @ace_national @northyorksc for support.
