@womenwhowalknet @clairecollison1 @DeirdreHeddon @ClareQualmann thank you, will be in touch

[The Outposted Project @outposted1]

We have had so many great comments about our project being a time capsule, a slice of fascinating social and creative history. The exhibition ends on Thurs and we would love to donate it to an archive but we are scratching our heads as to where to send it - any suggestions folks?

[The Outposted Project @outposted1]

@womenwhowalknet @clairecollison1 @DeirdreHeddon @ClareQualmann yes potentially, depending on where

[The Outposted Project @outposted1]

@clairecollison1 they keep their historical maps in national archives - the National Archives won't take deposits but referred us to local archives instead - it seems a shame to tuck it away where it is going to be difficult to access but that might be better than stored in a box in a loft!

Spent a lovely, sunny Saturday at the @outposted1 exhibition with @K_Stansfield @Jo_Nissel and @JlmMorton ❤️

It was amazing to see these beautiful maps full of poetry & art made during lockdown. Great to reflect on all the light & connections that arose from that dark time ✨

A few more photos of the @outposted1 exhibition 💙✨🌸

@JlmMorton @K_Stansfield @Jo_Nissel @outposted1 It was so wonderful to see you and Jo today at the gorgeous @outposted1 exhibition. It was great to chat in real life, talk poetry and see all the beautiful maps. They really are a testament to the creativity and connections that were made during lockdown ❤️

[Katherine Stansfield is away @K_Stansfield]

Brilliant trip to see the @outposted1 exhibition in Nailsworth today with @writetoempower. Emotional to see our lockdown map contributions gathered together in such a beautiful way. 4 days left to catch the show!
