The Arth Flag was created in response to the devastating reality that pollution is destroying the ecology and autonomy of the river Arth.
During the art classes, held at the village hall a group of creatives questioned what it means culturally, politically and personally to connect to a river whose future is under threat.
The flag weaves together select moments from the participating artists' work to visualise the beauty and spirit of the river Arth.

Crëwyd Y Faner Arth mewn ymateb i’r realiti dinistriol bod llygredd yn dinistrio ecoleg ac ymreolaeth yr afon Arth.
Yn ystod y dosbarthiadau celf, a gynhaliwyd yn neuadd y pentref bu criw o bobl greadigol yn cwestiynu beth mae’n ei olygu’n ddiwylliannol, yn wleidyddol ac yn bersonol i gysylltu ag afon sydd o dan fygythiad.
Mae'r faner yn plethu gyda'i gilydd eiliadau dethol o waith yr artistiaid nath cymryd rhan i ddelweddu harddwch ac ysbryd yr afon Arth.
The art classes were curated by Natalie Chapmanand Harriett Chapmanand supported by the Arts Council of Wales
