Imploding Inevitable Festival 2012

It's that time of the year again, the Imploding Inevitable Festival is back again .. and with even more to offer, more poetry, more vintage clothing and more top secret delights .. I  may tell you, but you may  have to buy a ticket, I promise you will not be disappointed!

This year there was a batch of early bird tickets that went on release at the beginning of this year, well it's fair to say they all went in record time!


A brand spanking new website is currently being designed and should be up and running very shortly ... not to mention the new addition to team Gordon MacDonald creating a batch of bespoke posters, eye catching, simple - yet effective/  The posters are sophisticated, and represent Imploding Inevitable very well ...  they certainly caught my eye! (you can take one after the gig aswell)

The Rise of II

This weekend is the II Festival, i'm very excited for it, we got given a talk on how young children learn within art late week, it seems so appropiate as I am doing a workshop with the young un's, unfortuantly the workshop is only an hour and half long, I wanted to plant life-size mythicals beasts in the trees and around the campsite, make dens and hang a perspect painting from one tree to another... but headdresses/masks it must be.

Peter Randall-Page has been in the Gallery today setting up his solo exhibition, usally that side of the exhibition is taken care of by gallery staff.




 I have been recently appointed Visual Arts Co-ordinator for the Arts Exchange.  A group I knew little of, I went along to a networking event with poet Louise Fazackerly and met people from the team.  The deal with appointing funding for projects and events.  If you are from the Wigan and Leigh area, have alook!
