Old Art Transforming

It took us four days to paint the Old Art Room as the walls are

all tongue and grove boarding. 

Mum was drafted in to paint cupboards and the shelves.

These shelves turned out to have a story.

The room was a woodwork room before it was an Art Room 

and Harry Carter, relative of Howard Carter used to

teach wood work in here and he had made the shelves so 

all the tools could be neatly put away in the cupboard!

His wood carving is all around Norfolk including

 the Swaffham sign and in the church.

Before the Art or Woodwork room, when first built it was a Gym!

That accounts for the sprung floor!

Finally I am able to blog about The Old Art Room 

which is now the new Art Room but called

"The Old ArtRoom"

This was the before pictures to The Old Art Room.

When I walked in I knew it would be a great space

for creating Art and over the last month it has proved so true.

So many have called through the door and so many are enjoying 

classes and using the space. More to come too!

Students who have come to visit who went to school here have shared 

their stories and think its great the building is having a new lease of life.

We, Stewart and I soon got to work transforming the space 

into a creative space for us to work in.
