Art for People - Public Art On The Verge

Milton Keynes is home to On the Verge, an independent Public Art project pioneered by the artist Myriam Metcalf. The project is a good example of how the community has driven forward and commissioned its own programme and fundraised to implement it.

On the Verge has engaged these four communities which surround Central Milton Keynes in a series of digital photography workshops and the resulting Banners. These workshops were artist led and designed to allow local people to use digital photography, manipulation and print techniques to express what they felt about their estate. The aim of the consultation workshops was to generate ideas which could help to develop an identity and pride in place for each community. more >
