After getting into a bit of a routine – panic about what to do for festival/festival happens/panic about what to put into Kalender/Kalender happens and feels OK after all/panic about what to do for festival … well, you're getting the picture – I thought I'd better make some effort towards sorting out the bigger picture. Like, what happens when the year ends?
So, I've managed to arrange to meet my Arts Council case officer and will also hopefully get the chance to catch up with my long-lost mentor, Jo. As an aside, yesterday I discovered the sad news that Babylon Gallery in Ely is to close permanently in June. What a major loss to contemporary art in East Anglia; I can hardly believe it.
I've also applied for a short-term residency which concludes with a solo exhibition for the chosen artist – feels like a long shot but, well, might as well give it a try.
And, the Candlemas Kalender is currently at the printers' so, barring cock-ups, I'll be collecting it tomorrow afternoon! Yay! And HOPEFULLY also our expresso machine which is currently being fixed (not at the printers' I hasten to add). Even bigger YAY!!
