<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here is a short video from the St Mary's Exhibition. The schools sent representatives to see the show and they gave us their thoughts and memories about the project..our thanks to Bob Qazi for his interviews and and to the participants for their comments. This piece will feature on the Hospice's own website as an example of their links with the community and its young people.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The next comments come from our schools. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I won't be the only working artist who recognises these accounts, or who had a similar encounter with the arts and artists through such sympathetic, creative and committed teachers during their own childhood. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Clearly, this stuff matters. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If the arts become a peripheral activity in schools, children suffer. </span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: small;">"One of the
little girls in my class lacks in confidence and can find it
difficult to build relationships with classmates. She finds English
and Maths related activities challenging and as a result can often
give up and feel disengaged. From session 1, the girl in question was
enthused about the idea of an arts project. She was happy to work
alongside class members and as the sessions went on she began to
develop stronger working relationships with the children she was
working alongside. With art and design being an area she was
passionate about, it was a great opportunity to build her
communication skills and enthusiasm for other subjects. It was lovely
to see her suggesting ideas and helping her peers whilst contributing
confidently to the whole project." (Participating School Staff)</span></b><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">St Mary's is one of Ulverston's great assets. Go and have a look..if you're out for a walk its a great place to get a brew, the surrounds and views are great and there's a giftshop and the staff are lovely...</span><br />

While the dance workshop set up in the main hall we sat back in our gallery and listened to voices from Arts Council, SLDC and Ulverston Community Enterprises telling us the story of the transfer of ownership and their hopes for the future.<br />
<br />
For me the event ended as it began , with a room full of interested people with a common purpose and who value each other's efforts. So, thank you to:<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These visitors to the show were able to read the Croftlands piece like a real map, and find their house...while this lad is getting deeply into Pete's Sound piece..</span><br />

We've had a steady </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">footfall of visitors, including more boys and girls from our schools, and some welcome faces from the Friends Of The Coro, whose support set the project rolling.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Two days into the run and another busy day, </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Fran's sketchbooks are attracting plenty of attention, and we just had a late wave of visitors after the Roller Disco.. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">here are a few comments....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"..thought it was wonderful as a mix of generational talent...(prospective and professional) Great Ideas."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">" The quality from all concerned is inspirational..a body of work which has depth and breadth..a rich and valuable project which has clearly been exceptionally well delivered."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> "Wonderful exhibition showing aspects of Ulverston in such innovative ways. Well done to all."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's been nice to see some of our boys and girls enjoying the show, and again we've made some interesting contacts with artists and people in education from our area and beyond. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We had another good chat with a local Scout leader, who told us about a very interesting and creative use of their space at Dragley Beck involving mapping and the use of Found Objects to evoke the past present and future of the town</span><br />

I'll put some more photos up later, but for now it's just nice to sit back and watch people enjoying the work and talking to the artists, and mingling with everything else that's happening at the Coro this week during the Coro All event..</span><br />

We spent a full day with the Croftlands Artsquad, their teachers and our three commissioned artists, and watched an exceptional piece of work take shape.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We handed the reins of the project to the group, which includes boys and girls from across the schools year groups, and saw them work with great skill, imagination enthusiasm and care. They brought their own materials and photographs to add to the mix, and, in groups of three and four, transformed the white spaces on the board into highly evocative representations of Croftlands and the surrounding area . </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let's look at some pictures..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We saw some superb model-making, including these sections of woodland.. <span style="text-align: center;">some beautiful use of colour and surface, some delicate layering and placing of carefully selected shaped and prepared materials.</span></span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In the discussions with our artists the boys and girls were able to discuss ideas and the practicalities (expense, for example) of working in particular ways and in one case to share and compare sketchbooks. </span></span><br />
<span style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The overall impression is one of a highly imaginative bunch of people, capable of blending a serious approach to a job with enthusiasm for a challenge and a willingness to experiment.</span> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here's the piece at the end of the second session...wednesday is going to be very interesting indeed.</span><br />

After a session of "fettling" and building up the railway line section of the piece we sat down with Fran and Pete to catch up on their progress, listen to some of Pete's sounds and look at the work Fran has made using the SJB piece as her starting point. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Coro were hosting a memorial event in the Supper Room for a valued friend of the building, and we were happy to move into the Main Hall for the afternoon. Andrew kindly set up a screen for us, and Alex showed a series of pictures of SJB school, which were a useful aid to the boys and girls who were working in the description of the school and its grounds.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Lex and Fran joined us on friday, the boys and girls had a close look at some of Lexi's Felt pieces and we completed the work by adding a railway track, a train and a huge flock of birds that seem to hover over the landscape. Fran has photographed all the birds and will be working these images into another piece.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> There's been a lovely atmosphere to these two sessions. Thanks to the boys and girls, and to Fran, Lex and Pete for their contributions and to the SJB staff too..it was great seeing everyone joining in and working together on friday, we hoped this project would be all about sharing ideas and experiences and today we've seen exactly that.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Look out for more pics from the SJB sessions, meanwhile here's the finished piece of work...and below that, a picture from Frans' birds collection..</span></div>

have been out and about sketching today for the Sir John Barrow
piece, you meet some lovely Ulverston people on this
project....Sketching the wooden house (known locally by the children
as the ski lodge apparently), situated in the corner of Lightburn
Park, the lady came out and found me almost in her drive...happily
Val was lovely and invited me in to photograph the house from the
back, she loved the idea of our project and was very keen to see our
end results at the exhibition. Turns out she is part of a group
trying to get affordable housing for Ulverston and they are very keen
to work with young people involving the architecture of these houses,
and was wondering if this could be part of some future project
working with the schools. ........</span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm off to meet someone about some plant dyes in about an hour..and we've had a nice message of support from Ulverston Community Enterprises, a new social enterprise running local assets including the Coro.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, plenty happening...here's some of Lexi's work in progress, and Pete gathering the sound of Ulverston Market Hall and playing back his recordings to our visitors...</span><br />

There was another event called Green Room on in the Coro supper room, and we picked up a few accidental visitors. The event was organised for people working with local Autism groups, and it was good to see Dan Banks from Barrow 6FC and elsewhere, who I last saw while working on Co-Mmotion, a great project led by Furness branch of the National Autism Society, Musician Alan Fitzgerald and Dancer / Therapist Tids Pickard. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></i>
