Display: Forging for Wellbeing


  • The Museum in the Park Stratford Park, Stratford Road Stroud, Gloucestershire, England, GL5 4AF United Kingdom (map)

This special display showcases work by young people who took part in an 8 week programme funded by the Ironmongers Company and coordinated by Community autism support and advice (CASA). 8 young people with Autism diagnoses had the opportunity to work with Arian Leljak at his forge in Cranham as part of the Earth Fire Iron celebration of the life and work of Alan Evans.

This exhibition is a collection of items made by the participants during the course.

With thanks to the Ironmongers Company for their generous funding and Lesley Greene for her tireless help in making this event possible, and thanks to Arian for facilitating such inspiring workshops. Above all, thanks and praise to all the young makers for sharing their work with us.
