We are heading towards the end of the Thurrock Island Community Art Project for 2020 and we hope that you have enjoyed it so far. If you have missed any of the weekly activities, don’t worry, you still have a little time left to enter. Below is a summary of all 7 weekly activities.
Houses, shops, hospitals and more. Create a building to populate the landscape of Thurrock Island.
Thurrock Island is surrounded by a deep blue sea. What do you think is living under the water? Create your own sea creatures to live in the ocean.
Activity 3 – Design a Character
Who is living on the island? Design your own character and build the community of Thurrock Island.
This week is all about getting creative and trying something new. Have a go at creating a costume for your character.
Activity 5 – Sea Plants & Corals
Design sea plants and corals to form the landscape deep in the ocean surrounding Thurrock Island.
Activity 6 – Reduce. Reuse. Recycle
Create your own island from cardboard boxes and more. Recycle what would have been waste into something new.
Design flowers and plants to show the landscape of Thurrock Island transforming as the Landfolk and Merfolk work together to reduce climate change and pollution.
The closing date for all entries is 31st August 2020.

Exciting things to look out for this September!
The team at Cece Luna are busy collating the Thurrock Island artworks from the community to create a storybook and an online art gallery which will be unveiled at Thurrock Festival Digital on 19th September 2020.
We also have another exciting surprise instore for you, during the summer the team at Cece Luna have been busy creating a largescale costume and puppet called Mandi which will also be unveiled at Thurrock Festival this year! Mandi is made entirely from recycled and repurposed materials and will greet the T100 walkers as they enter Grays Wharf for Kinetika’s Spring Clean Mandala Making Activity on 19th September 2020. We are excited to share with you more information about Mandi very soon.
