Out of Order Exhibition

The opening night of the exhibition went really well I thought. The crowds seemed to come in waves so there were some quieter times and some times where the space was really full, which is obviously a good thing! I thought the space looked really professional and it was full of great work, its so nice to see everyone's work in the same place when we all have such different ways of working. 

I had invited Ruth Overy to the exhibition and told her to feel free to extend the invite to anyone else, she came with a few other members of the Ash Road Area Residents Association so it was nice to chat to them too. They were impressed with all the work on display and asked me to let them know when our final exhibition is on because they would love to come. 

Tonight made me think that I should be attending more events like this to see what other people in my position are doing. I really enjoy them and you often find like-minded people to talk to through friends of friends, etc. Its a a good way of making new contacts but in a less-intimidating and daunting way than mingling with a group of total strangers.
