Residents in Ulverston are being encouraged to take part in a new art project that will see the town recreated in miniature.

The 'Model Town Ulverston' scheme was launched by The Coro last month with the team lauding the number of entries that have already been submitted.

However, they are still on the lookout for someone to take on the responsibility of moulding Ulverston's most famous landmark - Hoad Monument.

The final display will be showcased to the public at The Coro in August so there is still time to get involved.

A series of drop-in workshops are also taking place to get more people involved, which will run between July 29 and August and will provide all the artistic materials required.

If you want to find out more, you can email art leader Amy Whelan at amy.whelan@westmorlandandfurness.gov.uk.
