No post since January is frankly shameful, a consequence I blame on been too busy. I’m therefore declaring that we will blog weekly (at a minimum)… although I’m sure we say this every time we blog.
Our new programme Eccentric England starts on the 4th May, a mere 3 weeks away! The flyer, press release, press and online marketing merry-go-round is in full swing…
Anthony Schrag’s project ‘The Normal Parade’ is chugging along nicely. The search for the most normal person via the Normal Person competition appears to have caught the attention of the locals. BBC Look North ran a story on the project, which meant we got onto TV! Whilst the local paper ‘The Echo’ are running a series of articles calling out for applications, and Anthony will be out and about in Lincoln high street in mid may with applications and a big sign, doing a bit of canvassing to the locals. A small package was delivered to the office the other day, in a small brown box that initially appeared to be a bomb, but in fact turned out to be a trophy to be awarded to the most normal person. Excellent!
Whilst the Eccentric England programme is nearly upon us, we are working on the development of the Charter of the Forest project taking place in Chambers Wood in August. Artists Richard Dedomenici & Tereza visited the woodland last week, led around the site by Liz Fluety from the Forestry Commission. Richard managed to find out what was and wasn’t allowed in relation to his contribution to the project, no dogging, fires, chopping down trees and paintballing. Glad that’s sorted.
