We've just had 2 weeks of fantastic art workshops, led by local artist Kate Whiteman at her studio in Bangor. We learned how to design our own murals, and to use spray paint like real pros to produce a piece of unique artwork.

We wrapped up the year with a tree-mendously festive night full of yule-tide fun! We caroled our hearts out during karaoke, played a holly jolly round of Pass the Parcel, and enjoyed a flurry of delicious festive treats! From sleighing the karaoke to decking the halls with laughter, it was an evening packed with merry memories no one will forget! Merry Christmas - Western Area Participation Forum
