Independents Day Sunday 22nd

Hi everybody. Here's the great poster Elida made for this year's Independent's Day. We have two tables booked so plenty of room if anybody would like to participate and try and sell some of their art or just come to say hello. Elida and Emma are going to bring Tinderbox zines to sell and I'll have prints of my photos and I'll display a copy of my book 'Dublin graffiti walkers'. There will be lots of live music acts, should be fun!

Tinderbox at Independents Day and an idea

Hi everybody! Here's a picture of Tinderbox at Independents Day. Elida's wonderful headphones creation to listen to the Heartstrings Collective drawings' songs were popular!

STALLS SLIDE SHOW

ACTS SLIDE SHOW

ART EXHIBITION SLIDESHOW: myself and Elida had entries in it. I wonder if it would be possible to have a Tinderbox entry for another year, may be with people submitting one work each around a certain topic? Or we could also try at another exhibition place somewhere else. I've been looking around the web and found this place, seems quite good:
Ormond Studios

I could check out how much it would be and if everybody taking part chips in a bit it should be quite affordable. If anybody else has any suggestions for an exhibition space, put in a comment here. My idea is for this exhibition to include any type of art: photography, illustration, film (if the space can accommodate screenings), anything, as long as it's all around whichever topic we choose! Post any ideas you might have about this on the blog please.

Another idea would be to do the exhibition based around Jane's wonderful Heartstrings Collective song drawings project, which already produced such great work for Independents Day (scroll down the posts please) and opening it to further submissions by photographers and other kinds of artists. What do you think about it Jane?

Till next time. May be I'll meet quite a few of you at the Photography Auction in aid of Alzheimers (see my previous post)!
