Well, hello there.

So, yesterday (Sunday 28th March) there was an event in the Arnolfini Reading Room called ‘Talking with your Mouth Full’. It involved a number of youth arts groups coming together to discuss all and anything about the art world. Including a couple of us YAACers, there were artists, ages ranging between 16 – 25, from London, Birmingham and Milton Keynes.

When we arrive we were greeting by a number lovely faces, and more excitingly, LOTS of croissants and pain au chocolates. We were invited to write down any questions that we thought would be a good thing to talk about all together and popped them into a big gold box. 

It was really nice to sit in a circle on some lovely coloured rugs and get to know each other before we were given a timer and a box of questions. It was interesting to hear how the other groups go about making and getting feedback on their work. We all exchanged emails so we could carry on asking questions and talking to each other. I’ll blog soon telling you about some of the more interesting ones and what we all answered. I also enjoyed answering questions from song lyrics.

So, I ask you: Hello, is it me you’re looking for?

Ta Very Much,

Jennifer.
