Well, its been an extremely busy few weeks for us Gallery Glue folks, so I shall give you a brief run down on what we've been getting up to.
Our opening exhibition Analogue-9 has been running rather smoothly, we've had more and more people coming into the space since the opening and the response has been very positive.
As mentioned in a previous post we are beginning to build up relations with local schools and community groups and on Thursday, just gone, we hosted an animation workshop taught by Taryn Edmonds and Laura Maragadouki.
Wednesday 30th sees us of on our research road-trip, where we head first of all to the Low-Salt and Market galleries in Glasgow and then to Edinburgh on Thursday to meet the people of Total Kunst and The Embassy. This shall be an invaluble opportunity for us as the more we discuss our project and ideas with similar organisations the more insight we can gain into the 'does' and 'donts' of such a venture.
The past few weeks have been jam packed with meetings in order to establish a structure and a program of events for your viewing pleasure (I have included a list of definite events below… so put them in your diaries!)
