Please join the faceboook group to Save the Woodsman in Basildon.
Back in the middle to late 1990's a local artist & sculptor, Dave Chapple, created a sculpture of a woodsman out of oak and donated it to the Basildon, the town where I live. The Woodsman stood close by to the Council offices of the town and was enjoyed by thousands of people. Recently the Council removed the Woodsman from its display and relocated it over 4 miles away from the town centre, where it had been all this time.
Dave Chapple the artist very sadly passed away last November but his family are upset by what has happened and how Basildon Council have handled this matter.
The Facebook group about this in support of saving the woodsman from a terrible end, has attracted over 1600 members!
But we need more support and I would encourage you to visit the facebook site and join us in supporting our cause to have the woodsman put back into the town centre of Basildon.
Just type Save the Woodsman in the facebook search window and you will soon find the group
Please join as a member of the group and support our campaign!
Art in Basildon has been neglected by the current council's administration. We are working to change that!
We want ART to be appreciated and enjoyed by everyone in and around the areas of Basildon!
Thank you for your support!
