Inspirational art is the theme of a series of graffiti workshops being held in Bolsover.
Young people will be working with a graffiti artist to design and produce their own unique pieces of art.
The art events will take place at the Derbyshire County Council run Talking Hedz Youth Club, Moor Lane, Bolsover, on January 19 and 26, and February 2 and 9.
The young people’s art work will include spray painted mural boards which will be displayed in the club.
As well as the practical fun the project will be looking at the history of graffiti art.
The art project will also count as part of a youth training accreditation award in creative arts.
Councillor Bob Janes, the county council’s cabinet member for cultural and community services, said: “We are working hard to create plenty of opportunities for people of all ages to update and learn new skills.
“This event will be a lot of fun for the aspiring young artists in the area and I’m looking forward to seeing what they come up with.”
