As part of Mostyn’s sponsorship of the Snowdonia Art Festival Bernadette Rippon, Mostyn’s head of Learning, led landscape inspired workshops to compliment the up and coming festival (7-9/10/11). Students looked at their local landscape and worked together to create 2 group pieces and worked on individual pieces that were inspired by their favourite place near home. Here is a sneak peak of some of the images that will be exhibited in the Memorial Hall, Betws Y Coed from 7-9/10/11 during the festival.

Teacher’s talk with David Nash / Sgwrs i Athrawon gan David Nash

David Nash gave teachers a unique opportunity to have a walk through with him to discuss his exhibition in Mostyn and the various aspects of his artworks. Teachers and Nash discussed the skills he uses that could be transferred into the classroom and the different approaches to sculpture. It was an extremely inspirational talk and we would like to give a big thank you to David and all the teachers who attended.

Rhoddodd David Nash gyfle unigryw i athrawon gerdded drwy ei arddangosfa gydag e gan drafod ei gyflwyniad yn Mostyn ynghyd â gwahanol agweddau o’i waith. Cafwyd trafodaeth rhwng yr athrawon â Nash am ba sgiliau oedd yn addas i’w trosglwyddo i’r dosbarth a gwahanol ymdriniaeth tuag at gerflunwaith. Roedd yn sgwrs arbennig o ysbrydoledig a hoffwn roi diolch mawr i David ac i’r athrawon fynychodd.

Here is a sneak peak of some of the images that will be exhibited in Mostyn’s Oriel 6 from 19th of November.
