Norfolk County Council, in collaboration with SCVA, Norwich developed a programme of activities for schools called 'Artists for Climate Change' - namely a directory of artists available to work in school and community settings on the broad theme of climate change. It was awarded the London 2012 Inspire Mark for Sustainability.
The Artists for Climate Change initiative aims to support county carbon reduction targets, and to make sustainable lifestyles seem both achievable and desirable.
REVIEWS:
“Jess has inspired children and staff with her amazing art ideas, many of
these make great use of recycled materials. Her outside works, especially 3D
sculptures, have added a new dimension to our art work.”
