Just a quick update this time to share photos from the 2011 MA show, the opening night of which was last Thursday (the 13th). It was a lively, vibrant evening, with lots of visitors; I was especially pleased to welcome guests from Hulme History Society and Venture Arts, the two groups with whom I have worked so far in trialling and researching the application of designed objects and workshops. It was the first time that both groups had met which went a long way to addressing goals of getting different sections of urban communities meeting and identifying aspects of commonality. Though that in itself was a success, the obvious enjoyment of a wide range of visitors in looking at the work was additional indication that the projects had been well received. Though the completion of the MA marks the end of an obvious era, I remain in contact with both groups and am optimistic that the future contains not so much more of the same, but more developments in a similar vein.
