News, pilot groups, ebook and more...

 So my dear daughter who is standing in on Zoom sessions from London, at the moment, but sadly hasn't made it to our Back Lane West residency this year, has encouraged me to keep going...i had thought i might pause this blog, as there is so much going on these days.

But maybe it will be more bullet points:

This week we have....

 Bobby in Back Lane West all week with an Open Studio Sharing on Saturday 1.30-3.30 of some of the work created....work can be seen on reels and the event is at https://www.facebook.com/events/



2 new pilot groups Newquay was on Monday, really fun! thank you to Sheron for helping start it and delighted to work with Julie and Becky as associate artists on it, handing it on hopefully to Sapphire as it develops she joins us for the next one on 14 November, same time, same place a bright beautiful old church hall with sea views!

and St Austell on Friday, thanks to the commitment and enthusiasm of Natasha, and seeding it with Janice and Demelza!

it made me reflect on starting our Liskeard group it can take time to establish groups, get the word out there.

In Newquay we might work on performances early on as Emily and Becky are strong experienced performers.



thank you to Anna for poster designs


Meanwhile we celebrate the launch of Shallal Studios awaited E-BOOK


Baccid by Amy Lawrence and I can detect a bat by Eddie Callis are also on Shallal Arts you tube.

Potential conversations re a dance group aimed for people with Parkinsons in Falmouth in the new year

Attending The Ladder Advisory Board meeting on Thursday

 ‘The Ladder’ at the former Redruth Library on Clinton Road.  The former Garde II listed library building had been closed for several years with the opening of the new library on Alma Place. A few months ago, Cornwall Council agreed to lease the property to a new community organisation, the Former Redruth Library CIC, who announced the relaunch of the library under the new name of The Ladder.  Refurbishment works to the building are being carried out with financial support from the Redruth HSHAZ scheme and Cornwall Council.  The Ladder is expecting to open its doors to the community later this year.' from https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/council-news/council-budgets-and-economy/redruth-s-revival-steps-up-as-historic-buttermarket-prepares-for-a-multimillion-pound-refurbishment/

Julie's Bicycle "We Make Tomorrow 2022" summit on catch up, 'creativity, community and connection'

Thank you to Elle for introducing me what canva can do, now to get us all using it!

Still trying to make my report sound more sensible...i experienced a real 'block' for the first time, writing isn't my strong point, as readers will know,...i felt i might mark myself on it, 'grammer - Shocking!'


...trying to get some more interviewees lined up, for my Citizen Journalism

did an extra zoom interview for BLW with Lisa, who was unable to be at the sharing for the installation 



Shallal 2 had a great time in the zone in the installation environment at BLW 13 October and then fish and chip supper outing!
