Create to Connect – Eden
Eden District Council is working alongside local artist, Simon Whalley, on a community art project called Create to Connect. The project will focus on the sharing of how involvement in art and all things creative is helping people cope with the Covid-19 pandemic. The culmination of the project will be the development of an online showcase of the creative work individuals have been involved with over the last few months.

The project reflects a national initiative led by the Arts Council called Create to Connect, which demonstrates a range of resources being produced every day through May. Those interested in the Eden based project may find the resources useful to refer to when developing submissions with information found at the following link: www.dothinkshare.com/create-to-connect
The project is running from the 18th of May until the 31st of August and Eden District Council is setting aside a small budget which can be accessed to help develop creative ideas.
In the first instance please contact Simon at simon@simonwhalley.org with how you would like to be part of Create to Connect - Eden and whether you require funding to help with your ideas.
