ELAF2023
Dunbar, East Lothian Council, United Kingdom
Aim: Our aim is to ensure that this years festival can go ahead and can be the successful community and family based event it's been since 2017.
ELAF is a free unique 6 day festival held in Scotland, connecting professional land artists from all over the world with the local community in Dunbar and further afield. Its aim is to share in a collective experience that uses art as a means to nurture wellbeing, working relationships and positive connections. We are doing everything we can to encourage the public to participate in our free competitions and workshops working alongside the professional artists. We focus especially on creating a nurturing creative environments for families to experience nature in a fun and playful way. As we did in 2022 we will be running art workshops from a local support centre The Ridge whose aim is to benefit vulnerable members of the community.
This year we haven't received some of the funding we relied on in the past so it's vital we receive as much support we can via Crowdfunder.
Our aim is to raise enough money to cover the cost of travel and accommodation for the invited guest artists who run the workshops and inspire the public. We also raise money for the competition first prize of a flight to Texas to compete in the LLano Earth Art Festival & World Rock Stacking Championships. (LEAF)
