Setting up 18 studios, Long Eaton, Nottingham

I have been invited to a speed networking event next Friday to pass on my experiences to young graduates in Derby. I usually avoid these networking events like the plague but I’ve accepted this opportunity because it is focussed. I’ts busy at the moment. It’s always busy. Today we receive 215 kgs of artwork from Korea. Now, the delivery people won’t move it upstairs so it will need to be unpacked on the groundfloor and taken piece-by-piece to the first floor…. by me and others who happen to be around today. We are preparing for Sideshow. I’m taking part in 2 open studios – in Southwell and HMS. I’ve also been invited to take part in the Oldknows ‘Reunion’ show – an exhibiton by ex Olknows artists and current ones too. The group was established by Trent graduates in the 80s. It will be fantastic to catch up with everyone :)
