Kelp Forest was installed in Kindred’s central court yard ahead of HM Camilla’s visit on February 14th. During the visit CB installed mythical fish amongst the installation with local children.
After visiting serval artists studios and the courtyard Queen Camilla met with our community and shared that she is also an artist!
