Face Painting at the Richmond May Fair
At the recent Richmond May Fair, on 9 May 2009, twelve volunteers from Duke Street took turns face painting a never-ending stream of people. Taking it in turns throughout the day many of the volunteers discovered they had a talent they hadn’t known about before as they painted spidermen, butterflies, tigers, skeletons, scary monsters and pretty flowers.
It wasn’t only children who were up for having their faces painted. A number of teenagers and young adults came along too. At one time, when the team were busy, a group of teenagers took up some brushes and colours, painting each other and having great fun.
Organiser Ann Hinsley explains the reasoning behind providing the free face-painting at the May Fair: “We do it for fun and as a service to the community. We take the opportunity to let the parents and children know about the church activities, including the café where they could go on the day.”
Many ask the face paint artists if they can donate some money and for the first time, this year there was a small box for donations towards the church redevelopment work. Thank you to everyone who donated to this cause; we were amazed that at the end of the day the donations came to over £185.
