Songs for the lovers and the broken hearted - Exhibition night!

I guess before I didn't really mention the event too much, I got a little carried away with the devil explanation. Anyhow, the event was an art exhibition which was first being held at Beerwolf books in Falmouth, various artists had gotten together an illustrated some vinyl record sleeves and were then auctioning them off. We got the opportunity to make some zines that would fit in with the theme of vinyl's (that's why our images had to fit into squares) and then sell them at the event. 

I was in charge of organizing the finished zines and selling the concept to the person in charge of the exhibition, we emailed back and forth and she seemed very excited to see the full product. I opted to take the zines down to Falmouth as I thought I might as well see this project to the very end, I could also make a day of it and enjoy the exhibition. 

Fellow contributors Tom, Meghan, Sam, Micah and Jade also opted to join me on my quest to Falmouth. 

Famlouth was lovely, we all went to a restaurant called the Stable which has some of the most delectable cider. Also there was a boar head... 

And here is the whole team preparing our taste buds for the most epic of pizza based cuisines.

 Moving on to the main reason why we ventured to Falmouth, the exhibition! 
Now this wasn't as it seemed, we thought that it was going to be a huge gallery space with a bunch of people and we would have a fairly large space in which to show off our work. 

Well the space above was what we were given and it was... snug to say the least.
Yes that's right, this small table was all we had, we couldn't even fit our entire stock on this table but we made do with what we had! 

The prints made by Tom and I looked very nice next to the finished zines and although we didn't sell any of the prints we managed to shift around 10 zines so that was a nice £30 to go in our New Designers money pot. 

We all got a little excited and I think perhaps we over-sold the event to each other and we felt a little disappointed come the end of the night. the day ended with smiles all round however as we remembered what a good day we had and our effort was recognized as a lot of people were complimenting our work at the event. 

                                                   At least Tom had a good time!
