Staff Development Program on Direction Island



Brenda, Jill (our newest member of staff, more about her later) and Pam had fun attending Emma's Art Afloat Project at the Big Barge Art Centre on West Island.  We collected stuff that has floated in from the sea and made floating art pieces with help and guidance from Emma and Sandy.

 Brenda's (top) was created from thongs, floats and fishing net as well as other plastic accessories she found on her beach walks.  Jill's (middle) was created with rope, fishing net, thongs and drinking bottles and Pam (bottom) used a float, bottles and materials found on the inside of rope to create her floating blob.

The four week project culminated in an exhibition on Direction Island last Saturday and Di joined us for a relaxed day viewing the exhibits from above as well as below the water.
