Creative Ceramics with Nottinghamshire MIND

Since 2016, the Harley Foundation has worked alongside Nottinghamshire MIND as part of their ‘Well Community’ project.

“Learning about art, design and making are important childhood experiences in their own right. However, they are also deeply influenced by general physical, intellectual and emotional development and, in turn, contribute to it. Art experiences have a special role to play in the development of aesthetic awareness, imagination, observation and practical making skills. ”
