Camphill Community Clanabogan showcase handmade crafts

IN proud celebration of its 40th anniversary, Camphill Clanabogan is showcasing a brand new exhibition at the Strule Arts Centre, Omagh, featuring the impressive craftwork produced by those who live and work in the beloved community.

Titled ‘Just Us: A Selection of Craftwork from Camphill Clanabogan’, the colourful, diverse and inspiring exhibition for all members of the family to enjoy will open on Thursday, August 1 at 7pm.

The exhibition will run until the end of August. Camphill has a strong emphasis on the importance of creativity in enabling people to live fulfilled and enriched lives.

This exhibition features work from a diverse range of talented artists and creators within the community, of all ages, using a myriad of media and traditional craft.

Within this variety of work there is a common theme; one of belonging, of being part of something, and of being ‘Just Us’.

“We are proud to be a part of this exhibition,” said a spokesperson of Camphill Clanabogan. “Art and creativity challenges us, broadens and develops us – but most of all it connects us.

“We certainly have been getting creative these part few days in preparation of the exhibition – and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve made,” they added.

“The exhibition, ‘Just Us’, will be in the Strule Arts Centre, Omagh, for the month of August, so come and see the beautiful art and crafts work created by members of our community.”
