Perfect Parks Exhibition

Wednesday, 21 August 2024 22:10

A mini display of Knutsford’s primary school pupils’ artwork depicting their ‘perfect park’ is currently being exhibited at Knutsford Market Hall on Silk Mill Street.

The exhibition was part of Knutsford Town Council’s Green Spaces research which took place before the school summer holidays.

The perfect park competition asked children to draw their perfect park whilst adults completed a survey giving their opinions on the town’s current green spaces.

The results of this research will help to inform, guide and secure investment in public open space across the town.

Town Clerk Adam Keppel Green said:

“The pictures children drew were delightful and deserve to be seen by everyone. We had everything from paddling pools and climbing walls to a giraffe DJ!”

The display will be at the Market Hall until end of September.
