Wonder Arts are delighted to unveil a wonderful new piece of artwork create by young people from Deafness Resource Centre, created as part of the Lottery funded Communities of Wonder project; Proud to be Deaf.

The group of young people aged 6 – 19 worked with Deaf artist Christopher Sacre to create a mural and garden ornaments for their beautiful community courtyard.

The Proud to be Deaf project has been an exciting opportunity for young people to learn new skills and explore issues important to them through different forms of art. They have found enjoyable ways to express thoughts and feelings creatively in a fun, interactive way.

From conception to final product, the project has been led by young people, tackling the themes that they told us were important to them:

• What it means to be Deaf in a hearing world

• Nature

• Positivity

The young people have created a wonderful artistic experience and statement which they are delighted to share.
