An art project celebrating what Staffordshire means to school pupils will be on display at two popular tourist attractions in the county as part of the Staffordshire Day celebrations.

Six artists have visited eleven schools across the county to offer workshops. The project has been organised by We Are Staffordshire, the place marketing delivery organisation for the county with the aim to inspire young people’s pride in Staffordshire.

Staffordshire Day is held on 1 May each year and is when the county comes together to share its pride and celebrate all that’s great about the county.

The artwork will be displayed at World of Wedgwood and Lichfield Cathedral from next week.  Workshops have included creating bunting, collages, line drawings and dance – all asking pupils to consider what Staffordshire means to them.

Stafford-based artist Ruth Allen worked with pupils at three schools across the county.
