Informal Screening

Hey all,

Tentative date for an informal meet up and screening before Christmas. I thought this would be good as I and others have not really had a chance to see everyone's work, at least not beyond the internet. So let me know if this date works for yall. Friday the 11th.

The address is:

B8 22 Smeed Road
The Old Peanut Factory
Fish Island
E3 2NR

It is in a nice large warehouse space filled with friendlys in Hackney Wick so plenty of seating, a projector, sound system, perhaps even mince pies and mulled wine too.

And even directions!


BY TUBE:
closest station is Bow Road (20 min walk) - turn right on exit, walk down bow road until you get to Bow Church DLR (about 5 min) then head down fairfield road, past roman road, right up until old ford road then turn right (you'll see a church in front of you that sells catering equipment) then take the footbridge over the motorway. After this turn right up by the Big Yellow Storage Comany (HUGE big yellow building) then keep going till you see a blue metal arch which says 'Greenway' on the opposite side of the street. Go down the stairs under the arch, walk along dace road for a couple of minutes and you will be at smeed road, phew! you need to go through the blue door 22 into the courtyard and you will HEAR US. VERY LOUDLY. wooo!

BY DLR:
closest DLR is Bow Church (15 min walk) - directions as above from the DLR bit!
OR... Pudding Mill Lane (10 min walk) - head straight along the greenway past the olympic site until you get to the blue 'Greenway' archway, which is at the end to can't go wrong, then head down the steps, as above.

BUSES:
buses are probably the easiest....
NO. 8 - get off at Parnell Road (which actually stops on Old Ford Road) then walk over the motorway footbridge. After this turn right up by the Big Yellow Storage Comany (HUGE big yellow building) then keep going till you see a blue metal arch which says 'Greenway' on the opposite side of the street. Go down the stairs under the arch, walk along dace road for a couple of minutes and you will be at smeed road. This only takes about 5 mins. NO. 8 is also a NIGHT BUS!!! yay. this is handy.

NO. 339 - get off at Fish Island (last stop) and head up by the Big Yellow Storage Comany etc.

NO.s 276 and 488 - get off at Monier Road. Head down towards the building yards and over the roundabout until you get to Dace Road (2 mins). Walk down dace road and smeed road will be on your left.

NO. 25 - get off at Bow Church DLR and follow directions as above. 25 is also a NIGHT BUS. woop!

OVERGROUND:
get of at Hackney Wick then walk south down the motorway until you get to Fish Island roundabout, then turn into Dace Road, then Smeed Road is on your left.


and here is a map too....

Possible shop front installation project

Ran into this today from the arts jobs mailing list and thought I would share since so many seemed keen on the idea of using a shop front to show work.
