Really pleased to be involved with this exciting project; https://cornishstuff.com/torpoint/could-you-one-day-swim-in-antony-estates-bath-house-pond/ Antony Woodland Garden Rooted Futures

Tucked among the trees on the Antony Estate is a pond that people once swam in. Right now it is low, muddy and overgrown at the edges. A new partnership wants to change that, and it is asking swimmers, nature lovers and anyone with an opinion on the pond's future to help decide what happens

📸 LOVE FORE STREET - TONIGHT!

We’re back tonight for Session 7 of ‘Love Fore Street’ - cameras in hand, exploring the street, spotting the bits people normally walk straight past and thinking about what we want the future of our high street to look and feel like.

We’ll be photographing the textures, shopfronts, hidden corners, characters and details around the town, and gathering ideas for what it could become.

There’s still time for young people to join the project! If you’re interested in photography, art, design, your town - or simply fancy getting involved and having your say - come and join us. You don’t need any previous experience - you can bring your own camera too!!

📍 Meet at Family Hub, Trevol Road
📅 4.30pm
📲 Scan the QR code on the poster to sign up.

‘Love Fore Street’ is a youth-led project giving young people a genuine voice in the future of Torpoint’s high street.

Come along. Take some photos. Explore your town. Have your say.

We’re delighted to be hosting a beautiful Art & Craft Exhibition at 61 Fore Street this Bank Holiday weekend!

The show opened today and it looks fab - the gallery is full of colour, pattern, paintings and handmade work, bringing together three Spanish artists and an English textile maker.

Featuring work by Roberto Ciabeza Gonzalez, Felix Cabeza Gonzalez, Rafael Cabrillana and This Bird Crochets, it’s a really vibrant mix of landscape, abstraction, storytelling and contemporary craft.

If you’re around Torpoint this weekend, get along and take a look! Have a browse, enjoy the exhibition and, if something catches your eye, support the artists by taking home a piece of original art or craft.

We love seeing our space filled with work like this and being able to provide a space for artists and makers to show and sell their work locally.

📍 61 Fore Street, Torpoint, PL11 2AB
🗓 Saturday 29th & Sunday 30th August
⏰ 10am-5pm
🎟️ Free entry

Come and have a look - and please share and help us spread the word!

🎉 FUNDING SUCCESS FOR "OUR TOWN" COMMUNITY PROJECT 🎉

We’re delighted to share that Torpoint Artists Collective CIC has been awarded £17,642 from The National Lottery Community Fund for "Our Town" a new 15-month programme of creative skills, youth activity and community support in Torpoint.

This is particularly exciting because the project idea has grown directly from conversations with local people - during the development of the Torpoint Arts & Culture Strategy - telling us they wanted more opportunities to develop creative skills, support community activity, give young people a stronger voice and celebrate what makes Torpoint distinctive.

Now we can start putting some of those ideas into action. 🙌

From our community arts space at 61 Fore Street ‘Our Town’ will create FREE opportunities including:

🎨 Creative and digital skills workshops
📣 Support with communications, storytelling and reaching new audiences
🤝 Practical skills for community groups, volunteers and local organisers
🧑‍🎨 More creative opportunities for young people
📷 Chances for young people to document Torpoint and tell its stories
🏘️ Activity exploring our town, high street, identity and sense of place

We’ll also build on 'Love Fore Street', connecting the creativity of Torpoint’s young people with the skills, knowledge and enthusiasm already found across our wider community.

A huge thank you to National Lottery players for making this possible - and to everyone who contributed ideas, attended events, completed surveys, volunteered or helped shape Torpoint’s Arts & Culture Strategy.

‘Our Town’ begins this Autumn, with workshops, youth activity and lots of ways to get involved announced over the coming months.

❤️ This is about creating more opportunities for all of us to discover and shape Torpoint’s creative future together.
