A COLOURFUL, intricate mosaic which involved work by more than 100 members of the community was officially launched by the mayor of Tavistock last Friday. The project to create the work of art, which takes pride of place outside the town?s pannier market, was spearheaded by the Tavistock Integrated Arts Group at the Molly Owen Centre and attracted funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund. Artist Emma Spring helped individuals of all ages create the work during several workshops. It depicts prominent sites of archaeological and historical interest in Tavistock and ties in with last year?s celebration of the 900th anniversary of the granting of the town?s market charter. After the unveiling there were refreshments at the Ordulph Arms in Tavistock.
