Into The Forest

Mantle Arts have recently received support from The National Forest, to run a project for NW Leicestershire adults with experience of mental health issues. Into the Forest will use visual art, photography and poetry to create work inspired by sites around The National Forest. Based in Coalville and working with a range of artists, workshops will run from late June 09 to September 09, culminating in an exhibition at Snibston Discovery Park. For more information, please contact Rebecca Wooster on 01530 830 811/ rebecca@mantlearts.org.uk.

Mantle Community Arts work creatively with people of all ages and from all walks of life; reaching out to groups through working in partnership with a whole range of organisations and venues.

Great to have literature and arts input within mental health. This will help us heal and move forward. It is the time and input we all need. Thank you.
