New postcard from South Africa!

Sort of.  And second post of the day, weeee!

If you’re from the cultural industries or the public sector and you’re interested in projects that focus on particpation and engagement, intercultural dialogue or legacy, or an artist interested in international work or how interventions can work in differing cultures, then this is an event you should not miss.  As usual, the event is free (and unfunded, feel free to donate), refreshments will be available, and there’ll be a big, fat Q+A at the end which will go on for as long as the audience require, then retiring to the annexe (the Anchor public house and real ale emporium), for a ‘debrief’.

RSVP if you would like to attend, there’s a limited capacity and a lot of interest, first come, first served!

See you there.

Edit: We’ve just confirmed a visit by Diana Ivanova (Bulgaria) and Babak Salari (Iran), to present their project ‘My Street’, where they have been working in Cuba, documenting stories on the streets of that unique country – top recommendation from Friction, a great project, from some fantastic artists.  My Streets will be presented at the Edge on 27th of Februaury, 2010 – full details next week.

And don’t forget to block out your diaries for our resident fools -  from the 19th to 28th of March, Jonathan Kay and the Nomadic Academy of Fools will be in residence at the Edge for a series of workshops, performances and foolishness.  This is the only appearance by the fools in the region this year, and so is not to be missed!  Again we’ll be posting full details, workshop and performance times next week.
