                                          Back Lane West residency events coming up!


                                   Studio sink being fitted this week! Many thanks to Colin.

Alexandra Zierle has ended up as our first artist in residence,
using the Studio 
"so good to finally make work again in a studio, very exciting"...
and BLW
"having a very important time in BLW"

Shallal Dance Theatre are back into workshopping, honing skills and trying new approaches for Embodied Space... we are having fun with newly created tap and point exercises! more about them as we go along...

Shallal 2 are pleased with their last show, wondering if we do it again somewhere, and planning summer show hopefully at Tolmen Centre.

Liskeard group explore visual art and movement with Janice this Thursday ( half term) as an extension off site of our BLW residency.

Penzance Open House group is growing.

Chats with new volunteer Claire about Shallal Sketchbooks, they had a great outing to Krowji Fun Palace and are now stored at the studio.

Friends and Dancing and Express Yourself are going strong. Artist Nicky Harwood gave a workshop recently and then came along to Liskeard group and we hope to develop work together.

Lots going on and exciting to watch the visual arts side grow:
Eddie editing photographs, helping with marketing/social media
Phoebe and Toby..exploring puppets, workshop with Red River School
Lou creating these lovely posters and exploring time lapse animation, working with studio artists
Phoebe getting to know everyone involved on studio/art side

Demelza researching signing
Matt Osmond helping me understand some basics of the processes involved in book design/creation.

Finally general release of film The Elephant Queen....
( for anyone new to this blog it's written by Jo Willis Creative director/founder of Shallal and my only and older brother is Mark- who filled our Cornish childhood with animals, reptiles and fish, he and Vicky treated me to visiting their camp in Tsavo national park at the end of filming, it was a truly wonderful experience and i saw loads of elephants!)
We wish it well!
David Attenborough, Vicky Stone and Mark Deeble
