Community Art Projects London

Community Art

Leona facilitates the creation of large scale Artworks that the whole of your Community take part in making. Your group can choose from a 2D or 3D Artwork for your indoor or outdoor space. Cost depends on the size/time scale of the project and if the Artwork is required for indoor or outdoor display.

Leona has experience in Making Public Artworks for all kinds of sites: in Schools, on Public Walls and Private Spaces. She can design a piece for your community to help create and help facilitate the making workshops – right through to installation.

A group of us have been making a mosaic to put on our community allotment building. Leona welcomed all our ideas of what should be in the picture and with everyone chipping in, she drew a fabulous outline ready to be filled in with mosaic tiles. Over the weeks different people have joined in the sessions, and Leona instantly makes them feel part of the group.She is so friendly and welcoming and she values everyone’s contributions, even those of us who feel we haven’t a creative bone in our body!

Leona is an instinctive teacher, she is very knowledgeable, helpful and patient, she listens and gives great feedback and manages to draw out the best in you. The end result is fantastic and we all feel very proud of our achievements. Mosaic with Leona has been a really good experience and I am greatly looking forward to the next one.”
