Block party unveils new sculpture
Saturday saw the unveiling of a brand new temporary sculpture for Sleaford designed by NCCD artists in residence NEON.
Although NEON are the design brains behind the new work, they have taken inspiration from contributions from visiting public to the gallery throughout the exhibition and some people have even helped create parts of the structure.

Visual Arts Development Officer Lucy Lumb said: “We had approximately 550 visitors on the day, which is a really good turnout considering the weather.
“It was great to see so many people come to the unveiling of the new artwork and to celebrate the last weekend of NEON’s exhibition.
The party moved inside and there was face painting and badge making and DJs from NP Entertainment kept the party going and spirits high.
