On Saturday we had, with Inclusive Exeter, an introductory meeting with many migrants, now known as New Exonians. The enthusiasm of getting our different cultural approaches together towards a lively and interesting exhibition in the Spring was very rewarding.
An encouraging start to 2025!
We’re busy preparing our next board featuring work by 21st Exeter Scouts on the Chinese New Year. In the meantime the present board is still hosting great pictures from HMP Exeter. Don’t forget to let us have any positive comments as it is nice for the artists to get feedback.
And the kiln fires on!
Thanks to the many who came to an enjoyable Sunday at Studio 36 on November 24th!
Work by Ardyn Griffin, Clive Hurman, Uschi Arens-Price, Steven Bramble and Veronica Gosling was on show. Joelle and friends ran the café, serving tea, cakes and a variety of soups. Joe Skivington and Peter Farrie played live music.
Our Think Chair exhibition ran from July 7th – 28th. Many thanks to everyone who came and made it such a fun and interesting three weeks and also many thanks from Age UK Exeter whose Budding Friends project you donated to.
We had a very well-attended finale of our Think Chair exhibition in fine weather on Sunday featuring live music from the Plum Jam Jazz Quintet, Peter Nickol and Peter Farrie. Mary Bramble was here with her children’s trail and Joelle served tea and delicious food in the café.
Many thanks to everyone who came and made it such a fun event and also many thanks from Age UK Exeter whose Budding Friends project you donated to.
A small selection of chairs from the exhibition, more to follow!
Our September exhibition at Exeter Central Library is now closed. It featured artwork from the Get On Board Community Boards and a panel telling the story of how the project came about. Thank you to all who have contributed artwork, poems, stories, photographs and more.
