Scavenging

The same exhibition that has our shark under attack has also delivered a scavenger hunt with a difference.  Painted on and around our lift, by local street artists, are 49 objects from around the museum.
 If you find them all you get a badge (which I haven't managed yet) but for me the best bit is the label.
No artist speak here - nice.

Shark attack

We currently have a wonderful exhibition on that brings together works by 95 local artists.  One of them is an installation that has given our shark a whole new look.  A net has been slung over the foyer and visitors are invited to make and throw paper planes/darts into the space.  I more than suspect that the shark is a prime target and some have succeeded!

Half way

We are officially half way through our weaving year and this weekend we have set up a display of our work so far.  It's quite impressive when you see it all together in one place.  This is most of it (there are 3 areas)...
 and this is our corner.  One of my weaving friends and I decided to share a space and we are quietly chuffed with how it looks.

Properly Winter

We have officially had a very warm June but the warm weather is well and truly over.
The view from my office yesterday...
 and the mountain today.
I've broken out all my woolies and am wearing them in layers with as much marino as possible - the record to date is 3 layers of wool and a puffer jacket!
