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.

Written comments

'We love Soil the space/art and folk'

'Thank you from Miles'

'Thank you what a heart warming exhibition. I would like to know more about the artists under their work. Oh i just found a gorgeous audio perfect.'

Janice has postcards to collect more specific feedback as well, more photos coming soon.

Miles by his picture, matching colours

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! 

I could go on about it, the bees with personality the writing, 3D, the roots, bunnies, hillsides, Percy the Puffin and so much more! 

We will also be back there for a week at the end of July with a space full of 'Passing On Passmore' Art!
