Art project at The Graveney Canteen

Last week I volunteered at the Graveney Canteen in Tooting. It was an incredibly enriching experience and I was able to see the importance of food, community and collaboration. Together, we created and collaged a tree which included messages and drawings from each visitor; focusing on why the canteen is important to them or simply a favourite food! The staff and volunteers at Graveney Canteen work very hard to cook a delicious meal for them each week and provide them with the space to eat, talk and share their stories. I loved being able to create something to represent this and look forward to visiting and volunteering again. by Luka Gatt.
