Woolly Walk Along

As part of our art exhibition we displayed the Woolly Walk Along film and photos of our section of the art work. It was great for our knitters to be working on such a huge community arts project that was enjoyed by so many people over the rugby world cup.

A successful show

The Artistic Manoeuvres exhibition was a huge success. We received over 140 visitors to the show which only lasted for 2 hours. At times it was hard to move! Our visitors were impressed with the huge range of work on display. We asked people to put a sticker on their favorite art work. It was great to see that so many different art pieces received a sticker. However, we did have a few peoples favorites! Wine and cheese was thoroughly enjoyed as was the live kitchen staffed by George and Bobbie who provided cakes and tasty treats fresh from the kitchen throughout the night. Thank you to everyone who attended and made the evening so fabulous and of course thanks to your wonderful artists for all the hard work throughout the year!
