Since my last post, a couple of architecture students from UCA have snuck in as the next ‘booking’ as they will be using the space in a week’s time for a Design and Build workshop, out of which will come a moveable structure that will sit in the space and that can be used for projections.
Hopefully artists will also want to book it. Like all organisations, DAD is having to look to maintain a diversified income stream. Fortunately we have not been affected by the ‘cuts’ as we are not a regularly funded organisation, but here in Kent the axe has fallen pretty heavily on some, while others have been spared or have even seen their funding increased.
August is beginning to feel very close – MA show starts at the end of August and I realise I now have to work really hard.
