PRESS - Scarborough News

The ART KO! MUSEUMS AT NIGHT RUMPUS exhibition has been taken down now... It did manage to garner some attention from the Scarborough News however. Seems fitting!

EVENT - Headline Poster Competition Winner

Andy Terrett, Ed Asquith & Karen Thompson.

The news poster competition Crescent Arts ran in conjunction with the exhibition was won by Andy Terrett. Thanks a million to Ed Asquith, editor of the Scarborough News for coming down for the Museums at Night evening to judge the entries. It was great hearing Ed talk about the content bills & also some of the near misses... everyone heartily laughed at his retelling of 'Last Chance To Enter Miss Scarborough'. Ed's also kindly arranged for me to be able to collect all the content bills which have been on display in the window of the papers HQ. This will hopefully mean that I shouldn't miss any more corkers!

The Competitors

A couple of pics from the ART KO! MUSEUMS AT NIGHT RUMPUS event on Friday evening in the foyer of Scarborough Art Gallery. I was in the ring taking on Scarborough Museums Trusts - Tigger Watts. I won the round, yay! The overall result was a draw. A fun event which seemed to live up to its title! Thanks to Ruth Smith for the photos.

The hour is drawing near... For one night only I will be battling it out in the boxing ring with Scarborough Museums Trust's head of public programming 'Will Watts'. Wish me luck!

EXHIBITION - Scarborough News Posters

A selection of my collection of Scarborough News Posters

Just finished installing an exhibition of my collection of genuine Scarborough News posters from the past two years. I've been fascinated by these posters since I arrived in Scarborough, having come to Scarborough from London there was a noticeable difference in the content between a major city and a small town. The more ludicrous & everyday headlines compelled me to begin to start collecting the posters with a view to exhibiting them someday.

The exhibition runs at Crescent Arts, Scarborough. 2nd May to 18th May - Thurs, Fri, Sat, 11.00am - 4.00pm & by appointment.

Some of my favourite News Posters...

WORK IN PROGRESS - Headline Sorting

Scarborough Evening News / Scarborough News Headlines

Sorting through with Stuart Cameron some of my collection of local headlines, I've collected these on and off since I've been in Scarborough. We're having an exhibition of them in Crescent Arts at the end of the month. There are some corkers!
