Last nights Opening Event for SOIL Earthcare
(despite tecky hitches so no live stream and no spoken word, but we showed artists around via zoom and could chat )
it was a wonderful meeting of artists, families, supporters and friends, old and new faces, 40 people!
Thank you to Cora at The Fish Factory and to the huge amount of work by Janice and Bobby to install it
and Lou and Colin for collecting and delivering the work
Jo Lumber for audio description, no easy task in a mixed exhibition of approx 40 pieces and artists not available to ask to help clarify descriptions
All the artists and groups who 'ran' with the inspiration creating an array of glorious rich work.

So much more to say but if you are nearby get along to the exhibition it's a colourful, quirky, poetic response to it's title and theme and is on till 8/9 June, with a nice cafe and easy street parking!
