Crafty Crapchat

July 26th 2010 from 18:00.
Divinity Café, Trinity Theatre.

Nametags to sew into school uniforms? Buttons to be sewn on? Seams to be mended? Do you have a to-do pile of clothing lurking in a darkened corner of your home? Well, why don’t you bring your pile of tedium along to Trinity on Monday night and do it there? That way, you can have a glass of wine and engage in witty chitchat whilst you work. Then it won’t seem like such a boring chore at all. Or you can bring fun stuff to do. Like knitting. Or cross-stitch. Or Etch-A-Sketch. Or even just yourself. See you there!

1st prize: James Galpin – fisheye stairs in black and white – Trophy and £20 voucher for use in Redbox.
2nd prize: Tim Quick – Homeless man in doorway in black and white – Trophy and £10 voucher for use in Redbox.

Thank you to everyone who took part. See you next time!

**Tickets which qualify you for the special £10 film & processing deal are available now from the Wobblybridge Gallery on Camden Road or Redbox Cameras on Monson Road.**

More details on the ‘ticket’ itself so go pick one up today!

Date: June 9th 2010
Time: 6-9pm
Meeting Place: Sankey’s, Mount Ephraim (where you’ll receive your roll of film)
Theme: A Summer’s Evening in Royal Tunbridge Wells
Details: Entry is completely free but we’ve arranged a special deal with Redbox Cameras of Monson Road which for £10 gets you a roll of 35mm 400 ASA film, processing, a full set of prints (36) plus one large print. Once you have chosen your favourite image from the Photowalk and had it printed nice and large, it will be exhibited at the Wobblybridge Art Gallery on Camden Road on 30th June – where we will have a wine and nibbles evening to gaze upon each others masterpieces (and vote for an overall winner!).

I think you have to agree this is a really special event you can’t afford to miss, so please register your interest by leaving a comment below so Redbox Cameras can order the right amount of film for the 9th of June. You will have the choice of Black & White or Colour film.

STOP PRESS!
By special request, we’re going to be running TWO categories: one for 35mm film – and a second for any other format. People have been digging out so many wonderful non-35mm cameras from their attics that we’ve just had to throw the competition open to allow them to be used! So whether your camera takes 120mm roll film or APS… please bring it along. The selection of cameras on display on the 9th is going to almost be as exciting as the final shots on display at Wobblybridge Art Gallery on the 30th. We can’t wait!

PS.
The special £10 ‘ticket’ deal we’ve arranged with Redbox Cameras sadly only covers 35mm film. But for any of you with a camera that uses another format, feel free to come along and join in. You don’t need a ticket ~ just you, your camera and erm… some suitable film! Redbox Cameras have loads of different types of film (and can process and print many of them) – pop in for further details. For the exhibition at Wobblybridge Art Gallery you will need to provide a print – please discuss this with Chris or Mike on the night of the Photowalk.

But remember, NO DIGITAL manipulation is allowed!
