Official opening of Ferry Bell Tower
Tuesday 25 February, 11am
Many of you will be aware that, for the last year, artists from The Stove have been working with the residents of Creetown on a public art project. This has taken many forms including:
• A competition to find a new Town Crier
• Trying to propagate seeds from the original ‘Ferry Thorn’
• Floating origami boats and candles into the Cree Estuary
• Casting a bronze bell in the former Blacksmiths shop on Creetown High St
• Researching and making a set of flags for the town
• Building a ‘Blondin’ bell tower to support the new bell and flags
You can read all about the details of the project at the Ferry Thorn Blog
A public ceremony to formally ring the new Bell tower for the first time is planned for 11am on 25th February……please do come along – it’ll definitely be one that you’ll want to say ‘I was there..’
