‘Vision Up’ exhibition opens this evening, UpCo in Otley - artists making work around a theme of visual impairment, art that can be seen, touched, stroked; even to be looked at in the dark. Come along and ‘see’ for yourself.

Apparently for some reason it's a good marketing ploy to, rather than simply announce your tour on social media, you build to the announcement by announcing you'll be making an announcement tomorrow. So stand by for an announcement tomorrow! Or just go to my website gigs page now

This up next at UpCo.

We hosted Carol Hodge tonight. She was superb. We can’t believe we set up a space where people can come and be brilliant. You should join us.

Draw Up! A unique event at UpCo, Otley – jazz-poet-trio Atatu will play in the round as we draw, sketch and paint, responding to both the music and the movement of the band. Very limited spaces, essential drawing materials provided but feel free to bring your own…

SUN UP FESTIVAL IS BACK! Otley’s festival of Summer Solstice with exhibition and events for everyone. We are partnering with Otley Live for an exciting programme of music - Come and join us at UpCo. And for starters, an evening with the fantastic @carolxhodge.

[UpCo @UPCOarts]

Last night’s lovely end-of-the-exhibition event, Rich Seipp and @heatherldawe talking about (frankly ridiculous) cycling rides. Coming next to @UPCOarts is the month-long Sun Up Festival - music, art, films, all sorts of shenanigans. Keep an eye out.

[UpCo @UPCOarts]

The exhibition is over and the final evening was great.
Over the three events we talked about running, painting, cycling and art.
It was lovely.
Fuck the Coronation.

Today! Graham of @armyofcats will be in the UpCo gallery in Otley recovering from the cycle across the hills to get there. He’ll be this afternoon’s host for the UPHILL exhibition - he likes to call it “invigilating” - all welcome!
