Hand Silk Screen-Printing Project
Minerva Art Centre - Hexham

Screen printing is an amazing craft which has been in use for over

100 years in Europe.

The easiest records were identified in China over 2000 years ago and

the Japanese also have used silk as a screen for their work.

Bespoke designed art works can be transferred on to fabric,

paper or even wood - depending on the inks used.

Aga is screen printing her own designs

inspired by her day job.

Why this method?

Simply because it gives a high quality finish to the final product.

Natural fabric such as silk is perfect for the projects and can last a life time.

Preparation is a key to a successful outcome, and the results are stunning.

#BarkForOurParks
Fundraising for Fields in Trust

"Any green spaces in our local area are very important for our wellbeing and general health;

these benefits are well understood and recognised.

I'm out and about every day with my furry customers and it makes me appreciate our parks and public gardens even more.

I decided to support this Charity as I am absolutely amazed with the great work they are doing;

their passion for not only nature but also the people and the importance of public green spaces

that impacts us all.

I'm taking part in Bark For Our Parks with my wonderful dog this May and few other furry helpers

whilst raising funds to support Fields in Trust."

Since 1925, this charity has been seeking to raise the awareness of the value of our parks and green spaces across the UK and seeking to protect them, forever. Most of us don't realise that our precious green spaces are not a statutory service, and that most are owned by local authorities who can (and do) sell them off at any time. In fact 94% of our parks across the UK do not yet benefit from the unique and robust protection that Fields in Trust create.

The charity's mission is to ensure we all have a park or green space within a short walk from home - something I think we can all agree should be a basic right and not a "nice to have".

Please support us as we make our daily walks do good not only for our health and wellbeing, but for generations of dogs and humans to come.

The charity will use your support to champion and protect more parks, forever!
