The C Word, (Because Craft is Art's C Word).: 03-Feb-2009

So, we all took a day off.

And The Door Opened: exhibitions, displays, events in 2020

March 20th-22nd, Ceramic Art London, (CAL,) Central St. Martin's, 1 Granary Square, N1C 4AA,

Sunday 22nd March, 1-2pm. Claytalks Lecture, 1-2pm, 'And The Door Opened.' I'm trying to persuade them to let me display a few pots there too - watch for updates on that. Please note: CAL is a ticketed event - click on the link to go to eventbrite to buy your ticket - they sell out fast so don't leave it too long.

May 1st- September 30th, with St. Botolph's without Aldgate and Beyond the Streets: 'And The Door Opened' comes to Whitechapel for the Summer. St. Botolph's will host a small display of pots and I will be there on the last Thursday of every month, with Beyond the Streets, to talk about the pots and the project and for a walking tour round Whitechapel. 'A Hidden History of Women in the East End' remembers the lives of the women murdered in the East End by an unknown man - now called 'Jack the Ripper.' The talk and tour focuses on the lives of the women, some of whom were prostituted, and on where they lived, rather than fetishising their murders as the JtheR tours do. They also connect these women's lives to those of prostituted and homeless women in London now. Beyond The Streets, like Women @the Well, provides exiting services and other support to women exploited in prostitution. This is a ticketed event, starting in March. If you want to see the pots as well, click on the 'Hidden History' link above to reserve your place between May-September. I've been on this walk and it is superb. You won't be disappointed. St. Botolph's without Aldgate, Aldgate Hight St. EC3N 1AB.

New: September 29th 2020, 6-9pm, Major event being planned with St. Botolph's without Aldgate and Beyond the Streets. More updates as soon as I get them.

New: October 17th-18th, Filia Conference 2020, Portsmouth, display of pots from the 'And The Door Opened.'
