Creative happenings in Lockdown…Flourish Jewellery Project

So it’s almost been a year since I last blogged….and what a year it has been! Halfway through the 1st lockdown last summer, my colleague and fellow jeweller Lisa Arnott and I applied to Creative Scotland to secure funding for a socially engaged jewellery project and were successful in securing it. We are shortly going to be launching the Flourish Jewellery project working with women from north Edinburgh and south Edinburgh who have experienced social, economic or mental health challenges are a result of the covid pandemic. Our project is in partnership with North Edinburgh Arts and Womenzone and will be delivered on weekly basis in the form of jewellery making workshops happening at Silverhub Studios in Edinburgh. We cannot wait to get started and very much hope that we can run face to face workshops with the women on a weekly basis until the finish of the project in December. We have a dedicated project website that will be launching soon, so watch this space!
