Having been given the privilege to Download the 2009 create and deliver Festival Programme the first British Ceramics Biennial for Stoke-on-Trent has Media Partners taken us both into new terrains beyond the crafts, design and visual arts. It has also given us the opportunity to get to know the city and embark on explorations with some of its creative people and industries. The presence of some of the greatest names in ceramics history is also unavoidable as you travel through the city, which we want visitors to experience through the Biennial programme. The Biennial has grown from the legacy of the Stoke Ceramics Festival, setting ambitious aims as a festival and as an ongoing part of the city. Funding commitments from North Staffordshire Regeneration Partnership give us a unique opportunity to programme in the knowledge that there is more to come, but it also demands a Official Funders commitment in return through a strong legacy of sustainable impact for the residents of Stoke-on-Trent. Ceramics can reveal Stoke-on-Trent to the world, as well as revealing the world back to the city. From Jaime Hayon’s vibrant ceramic designs that owe much to his skateboarding youth, through the traditional rural potters of India’s Gujarat region, to the cream of current UK artists in both exhibition and site-specific installation, we hope we have made the argument for the cultural value of a medium that is currently threatened within Higher Education as well as within Industry and the global marketplace. There is nothing like the British Ceramics Biennial in the UK: it is a first for Stoke-on-Trent and the start of what will doubtless be a significant journey towards a new way for the world to be thinking about the city, and for the city to be thinking about itself. We hope you enjoy your own journey of ceramic revelation… Co-Directors Network Jeremy Theophilus & Barney Hare Duke Flickr Blurb Twitter Festival 2009 News About Visit Exhibitions BCB Projects News Volunteers Getting to the City Events BCB Event Booking BCB Projects Maps, Itineraries & http://www.britishceramicsbiennial.com/stories/961-welcome_to_the_first_bcb_festival[28/03/2011 10:53:39] British Ceramics Biennial : Welcome to the first BCB festival.

  • Industrial Heritage, Tourism and Old Industrial Buildings: Charting the Difficult Path from Redundancy to Heritage Attraction
    RESEARCH Cutting Edge 1997 Industrial heritage, tourism and old industrial buildings: charting the difficult path from redundancy to heritage attraction Rick Ball, Staffordshire University ISBN 0-85406-864-3 INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE, TOURISM AND OLD INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS: CHARTING THE DIFFICULT PATH FROM REDUNDANCY TO HERITAGE ATTRACTION Dr. Rick Ball Division of Geography Staffordshire University Leek Road Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2DF UK Abstract This exploratory paper considers the processes, problems and constraints involved in the transition of old industrial buildings, often those prone to vacancy, into heritage and tourism- linked uses. It discusses the heritage-property nexus with regard to industrial buildings, and builds an empirical picture of such relationships in a specific local property arena. The discussion is partly based on research projects completed in a number of localities within the British West Midlands. In particular, it draws on work on the evaluation of European Commission Community Initiatives in the West Midlands that have targetted tourism development, as well as on EPSRC funded research focused on vacant industrial buildings in Stoke-on-Trent. As such, in scene-setting style, a structure is developed for the evaluation of heritage-property links with the emphasis on the small number of specific local projects that have at least partly sought to bring buildings back into use with some, perhaps extensive, degree of heritage activity in mind. 1. Heritage and the property domain - some introductory comments The background to this paper is the apparent reassertion of industrial heritage as a flavour of tourism in the late 1990s (Goodall, 1996), a process pursued with vigour in the quest for the renaissance of the urban industrial economy (see Ball and Stobart, 1996).

The Dragon in the dance has features of other animals such as the horns of a stag, the scales of a fish Music, craft and mask making were being and the footpads of a tiger. demonstrated by talented artisans and musicians.

  • Kemball School Spring 2020 Newsletter
    Kemball School Spring 2020 Newsletter Hello Everyone, Well I never thought that we would be ending the Spring term like this, with the whole country on lockdown, worried about catching a potentially deadly virus. These are indeed very scary times. This virus is very serious otherwise the Government would not be taking such extreme steps to protect people from catching and spreading it. With this in mind, as you know, we have made the decision to only open to certain pupils whose parents are either key workers or where, in conjunction with social care, we have identified that children will be at a greater risk by not coming into school. We made this decision for the following reasons: In order to provide a safe environment for our students, we need high ratios of well trained, medically competent, experienced staff who understand your children. With staff illness and their own vulnerabilities I can’t guarantee the same high student to teacher ratios that we need to safely meet the needs of the students. Concerns about the potential risk to the health of our children – if we take the government advice, by the very nature of our school, our children have underlying health conditions that make them vulnerable. Government guidance has identified having a learning need as being a vulnerable category. The Government have seemed to forgotten that having an EHCP won’t protect your child from catching the virus or bringing it back to their family. We are unable to keep a social distance in a school – our students are sociable and have no concept of personal space – we are unable to socially isolate Your child is having close 1:1 personal contact with our staff, particularly if they need physical management, feeding and personal care.

  • Beer and Cider Brochure It's a Great Pleasure to Return to Shrewsbury Folk Festival for Our Third Year and a Big Thank You to Sandra for Inviting Us Back Again
    MH Shrews Folk Fest Beer Brochure 6-8-17_Layout 1 08/08/2017 22:13 Page 1 2017 Beer and Cider Brochure It's a great pleasure to return to Shrewsbury Folk Festival for our third year and a big thank you to Sandra for inviting us back again. Like many at the festival I will miss Alan this year following his recent passing but I'm pretty sure he'll be keeping an eye on things, wherever he is, to make sure we've still got his favourite malt whisky in stock! This year we have kept many of your favourite beers and ciders but have made some changes to give you some new variety. We will be offering 45 different cask ales across the weekend, a quarter of which are different from last year. After a small trial last year we are extending our craft keg range, available in the main bar. I am particularly pleased to have some beers available from the genius hand of Ken King of local Chapel Brewery, but be quick as stocks are limited on these. For lovers of more fizzy stuff, we are pleased to be working with Kingstone Press Cider, Warsteiner and Kaltenberg. Kingstone Press will once again be sponsoring The Folk Slam, the rousing finale to the festival on the Pengwern stage. Other new brewers include Purity, which is supporting the Village Stage this year, and we say a welcome return to The Shropshire Brewery after an absence last year. Also watch out for great wines, a new range of cocktails, Prosecco (obviously!) and loads of gin at our wine bar this year.
