W3 Foraging Field
Foraging Field

School children have planted over 100 fruit bushes and a micro-orchard of fruit trees in North Acton Playing Fields this January as part of ARTification’s project, Edible Acton.

A green asset for the community, this field will provide an exciting addition to picnics in North Acton during the summer months as well as a vital habitat for birds and insects. Created with generous funding from The Tree Council, this new nature corridor has given life to a previously unused border on the West side of the playing fields, now populated with thornless blackberry’s,…

My Mural
My Mural

This summer a new beautiful public art piece was created at Bollo Brook Park in Acton. Here, the Artist Georgia Green talks about her process:

In August 2021 I was nominated for a project grant and given the commercial opportunity to create a large-scale outdoor mural in Bollo Brook Park, London. The project was funded by Central St Martins (UAL) in collaboration with the associate organisations MyMural and Artification to whom I am incredibly grateful. 

The themes within the mural centre around a fusion of nature and childlike magic, complimenting the green and open space in…

ARTi history
Pavilion project exhibition event

ARTification, or Acton Arts Forum as it was known then, emerged out of Acton Community Forum as ACAVA concluded its government-funded work with artists and art spaces in the area.

This gathering established a monthly arts forum to discuss and act upon current and topical arts focused issues; established an annual visual arts exhibition and performing arts festival; and brokered opportunities for the arts communities to thrive.…
