The Big Green Weekend was flared up even greener this year with the Transition Town initiative bringing a Transition Zone to Hebden Bridge.
Outta Place was of course there! We delivered a workshop that swung arm in arm with the aims of this event: raising environmental awareness through Creating, Mending and Transforming.
Neil “women158″ Parkinson is a Graffiti writer and Illustrator from Leeds, just another fantastic artist collaborating with Outta Place. He got the young people etching and marking creating unique beautiful pieces of art out of old unwanted Vinyl Records. To add a cutting edge spin to the project the discs were then decorated with illuminating LED lights! The workshop was free and the art-work was used to created a stunning exhibition of raw re-cycled art and sparkling lights!
