Corsham School Art Surgery Is Back

The Corsham School Art Surgery has started up again in the secondary school's Making Room, taking place every Wednesday from 3-5pm. 

"Everyone in our school and surrounding community is welcome, including primary school age and adults," said a spokesperson for the group.

The Corsham School Art Surgery is run by Mazy Bartlett and is a drop in session for the whole community, be they primary school age, students of Corsham School or adults from the area. 

Locals are encouraged to bring their own projects/ideas/homework and Mazy will help to make them a reality. 

"If you are really stuck for inspiration but still would like to come, drop in anyway and see if our piles of junk get you started!"

Mazy said: "We have already conducted a Family Learning session at The Pound. These go under the title Crafty Saturdays and can be found in the Pound Art Centre's programme (look online). They tend to happen in the middle of the month and run from 11.30am until 2.30pm."

Corsham School's Making Room has been approached by the Town Council with two different Christmas projects. One is to create lighting up reindeers for the flat roofs throughout Corsham town, project that will be done out of school hours with Corsham primary school children. Also there are plans to make the central display over the Town Hall entrance for which the Corsham School will handpick some of their most skilled and creative students. 

"Within the school, there has been a transformation in the 6th Form Common Room, as well as re-decoration. We have put up stunning examples of students' photography, and the most fabulous series of photos taken by the brilliant Mr Rogers of the Art & Photography department. It depicts our Year 13 leaping through the air, and it is definitely worth a look!"
