Artists aged between 3-15 years have been given their very own corner of Pyramid Gallery on Stonegate, York to draw pictures of trees.
The initiative comes as part of Pyramid Gallery partnering with the York community organisation Treemendous, which aims to promote the planting of trees in York to make it a healthier, greener and more environmentally friendly place.
The walls of Pyramid Gallery currently feature etchings by Piers Browne. The Yorkshire artist is the author of Glorious Trees. Every young artist will also receive a handmade wooden penguin made by Sheffield based artist Daniel Bros.
Terry Brett of Pyramid Gallery says: “We love seeing all these wonderful drawings, it’s great to see young people being creative.”
People can get involved with Treemendous in other ways by offering land, donating trees, giving time to plant trees and undertaking watering duties.
