Art for Kidbrooke

Community art project BTEC

Draft brief for developing a community art project on the Ferrier Estate.

Work in groups or individually.

Create a physical document that can be wall mounted (poster / series of posters / installation) that illustrates your proposal for a hypothetical community art project to take place on the Ferrier Estate. You will exhibit your proposals at the public event on 1^st March in the old bank on Telleman Square to residents of the Estate, local press and invited guests from Greenwich Council, Berkley Homes and the wider arts community. This will also be an opportunity for you to get feedback for your project which is your responsibility to collect and feed into your proposals for its final assessment.

To consider for inclusion in your presentation on 8th March:

Demonstrate you have an understanding of the context / site in which your project will take place. What is it that interests you about working on the Ferrier, what is your starting point? Are there any specific people, places and /or issues you want to work with (and why)?

Demonstrate you have spoken to people who live and /or work in the area – find out what their issues / ideas are.

Clearly illustrate/describe your proposal:

- What do you want to do?

- Why do you want to do it?

What is it that makes your project community art?

Who will be involved? Who is the project for?

How will you involve people?

What will local communities get out of your project?

How will you make it happen (what will the stages of developing the project be, who will you need to work with to realise the project)?

What do you want the after effects / legacy of your project to be? How will you evaluate it? What criteria will you use?

Also consider the visual impact of your presentation. You need it to communicate your ideas clearly to your audience.

How will you gather feedback about your proposal on March 8th?
