Swindon Open Studios: February 2015

http://swindonopenstudios.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

Monday, 16 February 2015. Snowdrop Mania at Colesbourne Park. I made my first visit to the magnificent Colesbourne Park yesterday, quite unprepared for the scale of the park, and numbers of different varieties of snowdrops growing in huge drifts. There's a well labelled path through the grounds taking the visitor through woodland, beside the blue lake, to the churchyard and the walled garden where you'll find smaller clumps of snowdrops, identified by good sized, clear labels. Above G.'James Backhous...

Monday, 31 August 2015. The Banner is in Place. Every year we have been told, you must get a banner, more advertising and more signage. It's true of course, we haven't paid enough attention in the past to these things. This year we have tried to do more, we've had about 7 large articles in the Swindon Advertiser. All 39 venues have a laminated sign like this:. So visitors can readily see these people are taking part in SOS. The Launch of Poetry Swindon and Swindon Artists Collaborative Postcards. Hilda S...

Tuesday, 21 July 2015. We have the Brochures! I picked up the brochures yesterday from Mark at Minuteman Press in Newport Street, they have done a fabulous job for us yet again, advising and making suggestions at many stages of the process. They look excellent, wonderful colours, fab layout, and no images cut in half by folds, thanks to the marvellous work of Jane Milner-Barry. I'll add some photos I took to Tweet the arrival of the brochures:. The brochures in a box with David Robinson. Masterpiece of a...

Sunday, 31 May 2015. Rare Plant Fair at Kingston Bagpuize. Last Sunday May 24 I went along to my fourth Rare Plant Fair. This year, and probably the last of 2015 for me. The fairs are great, there is always an excellent range of nurseries attending with such good quality, reasonably priced plants and lots of information about their cultivation, and they're held in beautiful gardens. Kingston Bagpuize House is beautiful, set in delightful grounds. People looking at plants with the house in the background.

Sunday, 30 November 2014. Old Town Lights Switch On and Allotment Meeting. The Old Town Lights were switched on last Thursday, 27th November at 7pm, the poster showed the new Old Town logo designed by Mark Pepperall. I cropped the poster to get the logo, so don't have the whole poster, and then Mark kindly emailed me the logo for use with Pipers Area residents Association things. Thursday seemed to be the night chosen for lots of other things, the SBC. I took photos of Old Town on the way there:. I'd nev...
