Public Art Project
East Hagbourne Parish Council is delighted to share an exciting new public art project for East Hagbourne, made possible through funding from Section 106 contributions linked to the recent housing development. This initiative will see the commissioning of sculptures and artistic features that will enhance key locations in our village.
The housing development and Windsor Crescent are locations for potentially two main sculptures and Parsonage Lane has been identified for a possible smaller sculpture. In addition, we have ambitions to create an artistic feature for the bus shelter and a decorative gateway for the recreation ground. We have developed three artistic briefs addressing sculptures, bus shelter and recreation ground gates.
To bring these ideas to life, we will be circulating the briefs widely to
local artists who may be interested in taking on these projects. We are keen to involve members of the parish in shaping the vision for the artworks and have this as a major item in the Annual Parish Meeting.
We look forward to seeing this exciting project take shape for the whole community to enjoy.
