To celebrate the launch of BOREDOM-19, Chelmsford Creatives are organising an Essex-wide Free Art Friday on 30 October 2020.

Free Art Friday encourages artists and creatives to leave their art in public spaces (such as a high street, park, campus, bus stop etc) for anyone to find and take home.

All you have to do to get involved is place an original creation (painting, poetry, zine, drawing, print, photography, lyrics, script, sculpture etc) somewhere in your local area for a passer-by to find, enjoy and take home. The Creatives will placing copies of the zine in locations throughout the county on 30 October for anyone to find.

There are no rules - just make sure the work is easily removable and does no damage. You should leave a note with your artwork so that people know it’s OK to take it home, and include your social media details so the finder can tag you or discover more of your artwork.

As a group of young people, the Creatives want to use this #FreeArtFriday to share the incredible talents of Essex’s younger residents (aged 15-24) but absolutely anyone can take part.

Don’t forget to share images of your ‘finds’ or ‘leaves’ on social media using #FreeArtFriday.
