A Message from our Chair
In 2021 members were invited to paint some Memory Boards for the Springfields Festival Gardens. The subjects on the boards were chosen from images relating to 1940 - 1960 and are designed to stimulate memories in people with dementia. Each individual painting was created by a different person who was given a week to do it in. The boards were passed from artist to artist.
They will eventually have a permanent home in the beach hut in the Senses Garden. In the mean time copies of them will be on display in the gardens.
The video was made when Song's of Praise were recording in the gardens and we were given the chance to promote Spalding Arts & Crafts Society and how we interact with the Festival Gardens.
