5) Chanelle talked a bit about the database at @csm_news alongside a screening of @hannah.karpel film about accessing the arts from a fashion perspective. Hannah is a wonderful, intuitive creative and more about her work can be seen over at @breaksandladders on Instagram!

4) Seren had a flying visit to Hull so we could work on the bid together in real life and catch up with the wonderful @87__gallery. Whilst here we managed to catch the opening of @newcontemps at @humberstreetgallery and @ferensartgallery in Hull and would recommend a visit over.

3) Chanelle was in Liverpool and caught ‘an ecology of care’ exhibition on at @openeyegallery. It’s expressed how ‘care’ and ‘community’ have become buzzwords in recent years and this exhibition did just as it aimed to do - it was BEAUTIFUL 🥰
