Orchard Art Series and Engagement with artist Kerry Lemon at Kingsgrove, Wantage.

Submission summary

The Orchard Art Series and Engagement project was undertaken in relation to the design development and delivery of the Kingsgrove public square and local park. Its aim was to undertake interactive community engagement to inform the design of the pieces of artwork, which are intrinsic to the evolution of Kingsgrove’s place identity. The interactive artworks celebrate the site’s historic past and act as focal features in the newly created civic spaces at the heart of the Neighbourhood Centre. It encourages interaction between the community and built form and will bring residents joy for years to come.
