Over the last 50 years, Milton Keynes has developed an excellent reputation for Public Art development, with over 220 Public Artworks across the city.

"Public Art in Milton Keynes is about inviting the vision, creativity, and skills of artists, to engage people freely with the place, in a well-considered way."

A quick short meet to introduce you to one of MK's sometimes forgotten pieces of artwork. The usual chatter and socialising are encouraged.

When: Monday 13th January 18:15 to 18:45

Where: Meet next to the artwork "Circle Dance".

Who: Geocachers near and far, new and old, everyone is welcome!

 

Circle Dance: Claire Wilks, 1997

A living sculpture created from fresh willow wands and threaded through a structure of steel rods. Commissioned by Milton Keynes Craft Guild and the Commission for the New Towns for the 1997 Midsummer Art Show, it was donated to The Parks Trust in 1998 following original siting on the roof of the Central Business Exchange on Midsummer Boulevard. The sculpture represents a group of figures holding hands, moving so fast that they seem almost to merge into one another.
