Weʼve raised £275 to travel to the Calais refugee camp known as The Jungle and run a series of art workshops for the young people living there.
- Haltwhistle, United Kingdom
- Funded on Friday, 8th July 2016
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
In May, with your generous help, I travelled to the Jungle for the first time in order to deliver art materials to all the educational organisations and people already working there.
This prompted me to set up a new group - the Jungle Art Stop - with the intention of putting together a group of artists who can be on site at all times in order to deliver workshops particularly directed, but not exclusively, to minors. We need to take education materials and food for the youngsters. You can help by either donating money or fresh food before departure. Thank you!
A slight set back with health in June, but am not ready to get back with a van load of generous donations and all my art gear.
Can you please help me with the cost of travelling? I'll happily sleep in my van, but I do need help with the ferry and diesel.
All donations are held and accounted for through the Whistle Art Stop and publicly accounted for. Please request a copy of accounts at any time.
