This year we are offering another way of sharing the inspirational work produced in the area with our audiences. We have invited our membership to respond to the materials in the Forest of Dean, the Wye Valley and Borders. Many artists are inspired by their experience of being here, or use the materials found locally... We have invited Carolyn Black of Flow Contemporary Arts to lead on a curatorial group, to devise a new series of commissions for the FandVOS members and invited artists. So as well as the Taster Exhibition at Taurus Crafts (see page 16) we have a specially curated exhibition being hosted at The Garden Café (see page 21). The invitation has been taken up by 8 artists who have risen to the challenge, producing a dynamic response and a captivating series of works. Each artist will be awarded £100 for contributing to the event, which will be the first of many initiatives devised by our curatorial group. We’re extremely grateful to Carolyn Black for her inspiration, determination and thoroughness in putting together this event, which we are sure you too will find inspirational.

Purpose of Document There is a significant problem in Monmouth regarding traffic, especially pedestrians and cycle traffic, around the existing crossing of the River Wye at the junction of the A40, A466 and A4136. We believe that these problems are serious and warrant action by the various authorities who are responsible for traffic movement in Monmouth; including the Welsh Government, Monmouthshire County Council and Monmouth Town Council. Plate 1 - Artists impression of one potential solution for Pedestrians and Cycles crossing the Wye The current crossing creates a dangerous environment for all pedestrians and cyclists plus anyone with mobility restrictions including wheelchair and mobility scooter users, many of whom avoid the current crossing due to the restrictions created by the existing footpaths and the dangers created by vehicles on the bridge.
