Elemental Arts
The Fun Galore Store – The Magical Enchanted Forest.
Monday 30th July – Friday 3rd August. St. Giles Centre, Elgin.
Another exciting project this summer was held in a disused shop unit in the St. Giles Centre in Elgin. Elemental Community Arts worked in partnership with The Moray Council Arts Development, St. Giles Centre and Elgin Business Improvement District. A fantastic example of the arts working with local businesses for the educational and economic benefit for all.
The project was to create a Magical Enchanted Forest. Day by day the forest took shape with trees, magical toadstools, fairies, elves, wolves, owls, ravens, glittering unicorns, princes and princesses. At the end of the week the participants processed in their exciting costumes through the shopping centre and outside around St. Giles church. Parents and friends were invited to journey through the magical gateway and through the truly enchanted environment which had been built inside the shop unit. What an incredible week! The workshops were full throughout the week and the response from all involved was unanimously magical!
