Wonderful reflective stuff at #Glenridding Village Hall about the Ullswater valley and what it means to people living/working/visiting there with @butnorain @PlaceCollectUK - one more day to go see. Imagination gone wild.
And the conversations continue - a steady stream of visitors to the village hall, and lots to share about landscape, care, change and opportunity … and art.
Fab work from Patterdale School children. A new story for Ullswater, with inspiration from Place Fell, Goldrill Beck, Bob the Raindrop, and photoplankton. Their work will be in Glenridding Village Hall, July 19-21, for #Watershed.
Tx to @butnorain@katebrundrett & the teachers!
ARC calls on the #humanrights community and the #artworld to extend the protections afforded to human rights defenders to artists who are on the frontlines of social movements and expand other safeguards for them.

ALT On the left is a drawn picture of a woman sitting down and covered in flames, holding paint brushes and a book, surrounded by musical instruments and a film camera. In yellow and white text against a black background on the right are the words "Art is Power: 20 Artists on How They Fight for Justice and Inspire Change" with the ARC and PEN America logos in white at the bottom.
Another highlight in the #Watershed project … what’s in the water? What goes unseen? Thank you @DrEllie_Mackay! Looking forward to seeing how @katebrundrett brings this into the exhibition. Glenridding July 19-21
Smiles all round! @katebrundrett chatting with Pete Barron @JohnMuirTrust as part of the Watershed conversations … one of five artists at large in the Ullswater Valley. Having a great time, learning loads, gathering inspiration for artwork.

What an evening for a walk & shoot on large format real film: @butnorain at work as part of the artist team on ‘Watershed’. (For those who don’t use these kinds of cameras, the image appears upside down on the screen)

Wonderful news!!! Curlews need a lot of help. This is a cause for a big smile, and like @curlewcalls says, more of the same please … in lots more places 🐦
The Moss of Many Layers was a massively enjoyable and meaningful project, with so much learning, story sharing, engagement and many seeds for the future. Great to share at yesterday’s @Nercscience event with @NECumbria and @CumbriaUni#peat#art#science#communities
Great show put together in London by our friends at the Wilderness Arts Collective, bringing together art in the theme of ‘Changjng Landscapes’. Lovely crossover with PLACE, and for the weekend it was a chance for members to meet in person.
