Please join us again at the Towner this month for our end-of-year social event for the network, with a twist!

An informal festive celebration of a year of creativity and connecting. Members should bring with them something small (think pocket or hand-sized) from your workspace/studio that is essential to your creative practice. It must be small and NOT an artwork – for example thread, an inspirational pebble that you have in your studio, something that is important to you when you are creating or thinking about it.
 

We will be encouraging you to meet a couple of new people at the start of the event, and your object will be part of your introduction, along with a name tag (for you!) and a couple of speed-dating-type questions to start you off.  We will jingle some bells to encourage you to move on to someone else after a short while. 
 

The idea of the event is to meet a couple of new people that you haven't spoken to before/much, and increase your network as well as finishing off your creative year at a social event instead of alone in the studio.  There will be some festive fare (drinks and nibbles) to oil the works, and we hope to make a small installation of all our objects to record our event and connections.
 

We would like to get an idea of numbers for this event to help with our catering arrangements, so please, if you haven’t done so already, let us know if you are coming along with a YES to bmnmembership@gmail.com
