Thanks! Have you picked up a card?

Probably a bit late, but it would have been nice to have had the opportunity to create an online postcard as well. :idea:

Thanks for your comments. I hope the cards are brightening up Porty a little. We received around 900 cards, I have to confess we didn't count them one by one. The main contributors were Towerbank and St Johns Primary schools but we also got a good number from The Village Show and the Community Arts Open day at Towerbank. We found that on the whole adults, not used to being creative, were reluctant to give it a go. I suppose as a lot of people grow older lose confidence in their creativity. Speaking from personal experience here!

I agree we could have spread the word out better and earlier and there are certainly some things we would do differently if we were to do something similar again. All suggestions welcome! A lot of POD energy went into the Village Show and there were only 4 of us in the core team to organise the Artwalk though we had a lot of help from the wider POD team to help with the display.

Please make a point of visiting the Library window to see the 3D postcard and the display in the Swim Centre cafe is really nice, as the space is so lovely and bright.

The postcards in Kitcheners are by a lady called Evi Carmichael who runs the St James Art Group. They have an exhibition in the Library as well for the next 10 days or so.

Some people have suggested having a Silent Auction of the best ones after the Artwalk exhibition has ended. Do you think this is a good idea?
