COLLEGE NEWS Artists create with TWO AYRSHIRE COLLEGE STUDENTS are helping people of all ages with mental health needs express themselves through art, at a workshop class called ‘Brush Strokes’. Lyndsay Duncan from Coylton, and Sam McMath from Troon, are both on the same Art & Design course at the College 36 and they work together to put on workshops for the group every Wednesday morning at St Columba Church Hall in Ayr. Brush Strokes also runs on a Monday morning and offers a relaxed environment for people with mental health issues to socialise and take part in art projects. Lyndsay and Sam were inspired to offer their services after enquiring to Voluntary Action South Ayrshire about “ They are given free reign to think up and deliver fun workshop ideas.” THE STUDENT VOICE: AUTUMN 2015
