Hi All DELVE participants,
Please find attached the programme for DELVE2015.
DELVE takes place at The Mill Wheel, Abbey, Ballyshannon this Friday 26th & Saturday 27th June. DELVE is designed to bring together traditional crafters, artists and designers with a view to sharing skills and explore potential collaborations in a relaxed creative environment, eliminating the pressure of client delivery. As participants, you will demonstrate your individual skill sets, explore possibilities across disciplines, forge links with potential creative partners and perhaps even visualise new projects?
You'll see on the programme that two tracks will run concurrently over the 2 days.
Track 1: For Crafters Track 2: For Designers
The crafters will experience design thinking/demonstrations and in turn, the designers will have an opportunity to get 'hands on' with traditional craft demos/workshops. Ideally, it would be fantastic if both groups could attend each full track. The tracks join together at key stages through the programme. There will also be 'Creative Interludes', where you can escape to the 'Scriptorium', experiment with stop animation and even doodle in mid air? (if the postman makes it on time). The workshops are not open to the general public, but there has been interest online, so we may have some 'passers by' looking over our shoulders on occasion. We are planning to film short sections from the workshops with a view to compiling a short 3 minute film to be shown at 'The Allingham Festival' in November 2015. If, for some reason you do not wish to be filmed, please let me know in advance, no offence will be taken.
Hot lunches will be served on both the Friday and Saturday and tea/coffee will also be available. If you have any dietary requirements please email [email protected]. All participants & attendees are invited to a meal at Nirvana restaurant (our treat) at 6.45pm on Friday eve followed by a student design showcase in the Thatch at 8.15pm.
Thank you for giving up your time to take part in DELVE. Without your support, this would not have come together. Hopefully you find value in the respective demos/workshops, meet some interesting creative folk, and enjoy some creative freedom for a change!
See you all on Thursday morning.
