The second day of the Dearne Community Arts’ Festival was just as exciting and action-packed as the first. We had music performances on stage from Pat & Andy Moore, The Grumpy Old Men and Thurnscoe Harmonic Male Voice Choir, whose spiritual songs were really powerful. (‘Glory, glory, hallelujah, the truth is marching on‘!)
We also had a fashion show from the local Pins & Needles sewing class (which meets at the Renaissance Centre in Bolton-on-Dearne on Fridays from 5-7 p.m.) and a dance demonstration from RotherHop:
Outside, we had Creative Recovery running karaoke in costumes!
We also had a display of model aircraft from the Barnsley Model Flying Club:
Inside, we had demonstrations of spinning yarn from Ruth Pettitt, with some even being brave enough to have a go!
The 3D printer kept hatching new dinosaurs!
And if you were feeling stressed, you could always have a relaxing hand massage from WEA’s Juliana Gilmartin:
It was a fabulous event which showed us all how creative people can be in such a wide range of different areas and was a wonderful way to celebrate our amazing community.
