Creating a Vyrnwy Timeline - RSPB Community Spaces Project and Vibrant Vyrnwy

Over the course of a few workshops, we hope to create a timeline for the wall of the Vibrant Vyrnwy Volunteer Hub, using different art techniques.

Workshop 2: Using charcoal rubbing, pastels, and hand prints we’ll create images in the style of palaeolithic cave paintings focusing on the animals that early hunter gatherers might have encountered in the area.
