The Ark T Centre, where I have my studio (which is actually in the adjoining church), had a stall at the Elder Stubbs Festival this summer. It's an unusual festival, being held in garden allotments and hosted by the charity Restore that offers support to local people with mental health issues. I set up shop at the Ark T stall doing portraits of visitors in charcoal to help with fund raising for the Ark T Centre, which is also a charity.
