A PLACE WITHOUT PREJUDICE : ARTWORKS

Proud Watford's vision is summed up by ‘a place without prejudice’.

​

Between now and 18th January we’re asking for anyone and everyone to express their own understanding of what ‘a place without prejudice’ looks and feels like in an original artwork.

​​

‘An artwork’ includes paintings, collages, assemblages, photographs and anything else that’s a physical expression of ‘a place without prejudice’ and capable of display (but not writing nor video – that’s for another time).

​​

‘Everyone and anyone’ includes you – it’s your idea that matters, not your artistic ability – ‘a place without prejudice: artworks’ isn’t a competition but instead our collective chance to understand how we feel about ourselves and each other.

​​

Then on Saturday 25th January we are holding an exhibition of the pieces at St Mary’s Church in Watford - please join us!

 

It's free and you can pop in any time from 11.30-4.30pm, but if you can, please let us know you're coming.
