Inspire are delighted to announce that artist Michelle Reader and author Leanne Moden have been selected as the 2025 Artist and Author in Residence and will co-create the exhibition and workshops inspired by the Summer Reading Challenge theme.
Imagine a garden where the most magical seeds can grow!
An exhibition that will seed ideas and grow imaginations. In partnership with four primary schools, Michelle and Leanne will explore the notion of seeds and that planting any idea can cultivate artworks and nurture writings.
Coming soon to Hucknall, Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Mansfield Central Libraries
Saturday 12 July - Sunday 7 September 2025
Look out for a FREE workshop with Michelle and Leanne coming to Inspire Libraries in summer 2025!
