All Fired Arts

After handing out leaflets to local businesses, we were able to secure a plant pot painting session for the residents. 


The session was provided by three apprentices from All Fired Arts, a ceramic painting studio in Kings Heath. This was a perfect collaboration between Magic Beans, the care home and All Fired Arts as the apprentices also wished to involve the community and engage with diverse groups in their creative art projects.

The workshop took place on Tuesday at the care home itself and each resident was able to paint their own personalised plant pots which kindly donated by All Fired Arts for the garden.


(We hope to take some photos of the finished products soon)
