Hello all,
Today, as part of the Hidden Project, we had a celebration day at Witney. This might sound strange but I can explain simply.
As you know, the project is in three strands – Wantage, Witney and Woodstock. The Wantage strand has blossomed into a perfectly formed art trail around the town and we will be celebrating the group’s achievements with a private view. Most people have heard of a private view. They come in different forms and are most known for the free wine and nibbles.
At Witney we had a week of Hidden Camp which happened over half term. Over the week the group built a structure that will be used as a kitchen area at Cogges Manor Farm. Each day on ‘Camp’ people spent time, honing their woodworking skills, shelter making and cooking on camp fire techniques. So, we celebrated in style today.
Janine Charles helped us along by preparing a camp fire feast. Friends and family came to get stuck in with putting the finishing touches on the kitchen and we got to celebrate the week’s work, in one day. Hence: celebration day.
I am now looking forwards to the Woodstock project and looking forward to our private view at Wantage.
In other news. I wanted to share this with you: http://www.artsprofessional.co.uk/magazine/view.cfm?id=6018&issue=245.
I have just had a blog published on the Arts Profesional website called: “Losing the graduate edge.”

This is my thinking space so all comments and questions welcome.
