This weekend I have been working at the arts festival in Birmingham, 'ArtsFest 2010'. The festival ran for three days and showcased many talented singers, dancers and artists of all kinds. I worked for two days of the festival. On Friday, I helped out at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery and today I worked in The Council House. Each experience was both enjoyable and interesting. I particularly enjoyed working at the museum. I worked with a range of acts who had many talents including singing, dancing, piano playing and martial arts. To be able to work alongside these people was amazing and incredibly inspiring. It has made me want to learn more because there is so much out there to do. The other volunteers who worked at ArtsFest were lovely. I cannot wait to be ble to hopefully take part in it again next year.
Two acts that really caught my eye was a band from Tamworth called Carousel Circus and a piano player called Rich Batsford.
