About Cassy Oliphant
Cassy in her natural element
I have a total passion for bringing creative magic and joy to community groups, and over the years I’ve worked with all kinds of organisations using different creative toolkits and skills. I’m proud to have instigated the famous marble run with Playful, but have also installed a sculpture at Armley Mills created alongside adults with learning disabilities, run creative drop in workshops at Basis and been one of the Leeds 2023 My World My City My Neighbourhood artists for Hyde Park and Headingley.
My own practice blends a love of nature, permaculture, folk tales and painting/illustration into different kinds of creative projects - the Leeds Little Free Libraries, a Leeds Civic Trust painted bench, and various local exhibitions over my time living here.
