# Bowes Museum Project

   5 November 2022

Year 3 and Year 6 are again taking part in an Art project with Bowes Museum. Our first visit to the museum took place in January.  We learnt about Dementia, and talked to an author, Jessica Shepherd, who has written a children’s book about a child who has a granny with dementia. We all became dementia friends. We also looked at the work of artist Mark Clarke, who has created an assemblage exhibition based on memories and loss. His mum, who also suffered with dementia, inspired his work. Next, we will be trying some printing ourselves, based on what we have learnt.
