| Would people be interested in a AN Art show? It's been suggested to me that this might be a good idea, it's not like we don't have a lack of talent about here and a good few have already done their own shows. So it might be an idea to do a combined one, might get more people along to see each persons work etc.
So what do people think? Would Barry, Shannow, Potato Junkie, Displaced and Deadboy etc be interested?
Bare in mind this is jsut a very very rough idea at the moment, I've not even considered venue or anything ogistically yet, I figured it be best to run it by people first.

I also think of this as more of a long term plan and just getting a rough idea together at the moment, who knows if we have enough interest we might be able to wangle some space in a art gallery or something. Though that might be pie in the sky but who knows.

| Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show? Put it on a UK tour and I will come see the London venue. I can't say fairer than that.
Seriously though - great idea but just a shame it is not something all of us who are interested can attend.
