PLACE Collective

A brief interlude over the past month, now turning our heads back to screens … but oh the sunshine! Hard to resist the pull of the outdoors.

Fab work from Patterdale School children. A new story for Ullswater, with inspiration from Place Fell, Goldrill Beck, Bob the Raindrop, and photoplankton. Their work will be in Glenridding Village Hall, July 19-21, for #Watershed. Tx to @butnorain @katebrundrett & the teachers!

Smiles all round! @katebrundrett chatting with Pete Barron @JohnMuirTrust as part of the Watershed conversations … one of five artists at large in the Ullswater Valley. Having a great time, learning loads, gathering inspiration for artwork. theplacecollective.org/water…

What an evening for a walk & shoot on large format real film: @butnorain at work as part of the artist team on ‘Watershed’. (For those who don’t use these kinds of cameras, the image appears upside down on the screen) @UKRI_News @CNPPA_UoC #Ullswater theplacecollective.org/water…
