"Yorkshire based artist Anne Thalheim inspired a group of her friends and neighbours from Appleton Le Moors to create a unique art installation in four community buildings. Their artwork celebrates the annual events, interest groups, history and crucially, the volunteers who year after year, ensure these building's are maintained, funded and continue to provide for this small village of about 70 houses.
The
making of these 'canvases' took place over the glum winter months of
2014/2015. The project has refreshed old acquaintances and forged new
friendships. It has utilised the wide ranging creativity within the
group and built confidence and enthusiasm to depict the many aspects
and activities of life in Appleton."
