Kids get chance to create public art work
Christchurch’s budding young artists and designers are being given the opportunity to create a unique public art work for Hagley Park.
As part of its Re:ACTIVATE programme SCAPE Public Art is on the hunt for young creatives who want to stamp their mark on Christchurch by having an art work they designed super-sized and publicly displayed for a six-week season, beginning in October.
Last year seven-year-old George Lewis’ drawing was turned into a 1.9 metre by 1.45 metre artwork, titled Sunbeam and displayed in the Re:Start Mall.
This year the best two art works will be displayed in Hagley Park.
