Whoop! Thanks @TimesGuardian for the spread in this week’s newspaper about the Sheerness Seaside Festival on the sun-kissed Isle of Sheppey and summer carnival.
What’s that? You all want to do it again next year? The Sheerness Town Team is appealing for helpers. Please share…
Great news! The Rose St Cottage summer show has been extended till the end of July. You have a few more weeks to see this wonderful celebration of contemporary art on Sheppey.
The exhibition is open today 11-3pm. @RoseCottageofC@SwaleCouncil@Visit_Swale@VisitKent#Sheppey
A really great role leading a new arts programme in Luton focussing on reach, inclusion & artist development.

To coincide with the arrival of the National Gallery Art Road Trip in Sheerness (June 20th -30th), Island Projects has curated a special exhibition of contemporary artists who live on or are inspired by the Isle of Sheppey.

We are excited that more than 60 dreams from Sheppey have been collected so far and the project is constantly evolving! The Isle of Sheppey’s Dream Cloud appears as a publicly accessible and interactive artwork, intended to echo the structure and strange logic of a dream.
I don’t speak of this often but listening to Nigel Farage in tonight’s debate I must.
My dad was an immigrant. From the moment he arrived in this country he worked hard every day in labouring jobs. My most vivid recollection is of his tired & weary eyes and oil stained overalls when he came home after a 12 hour factory shift. Even then he was able to raise a smile for us. He was kind & gentle & loved my mum with passion. He raised a family of 4 & instilled in each of us a fierce sense of right & wrong & love of country. His proudest day was when he became a British citizen. I recall him with love & affection & pride & carry the lessons he taught me in my heart every day. If it were not for my dad I would not be a lawyer today & in his memory I work hard everyday to make a difference for as many as I can. Immigration is a beautiful thing & don’t let charlatans like Farage tell you otherwise ❤️
