something for the weekend

The website and online shop will be ready for browsers and buyers by the weekend. Good things come to those who wait...

residency

Welcome Home is now open to applications for an artist/designer(s) in residence for November. There will be studio space provided to work in for two weeks followed by a two week exhibition of the work produced in the gallery. Proposals involving public involvement and/or the possibility of running a couple of workshops/events alongside the residency will be favoured, but it is a really open space and all applications are welcome. Applicants need to be based in or able to stay in Glasgow as accommodation is not provided. Please send ideas/proposals to hello@welcomehomestore.co.uk by 23rd October at the latest. The residency starts on 2nd November at Welcome Home, 19 Keith Street, Glasgow, G11 6QQ.

at the door...

I will be sharing the photos from last Saturday's opening night soon, just working on the website, but watch this space, there's lots to come! Thanks to Dan Farrar for the photography.

now open!

I haven't been here much as it has been a pretty intense couple of months and after the years of planning and dreaming about Welcome Home, a lot of hard work to finally open. The good news is that Welcome Home opened it's doors officially on Monday after a successful Saturday opening night. Now that I am here in the real bricks and mortar space, you will find me in this space more often too. There is a lot of exciting news to share... and for those that haven't already been, get yourselves to 19 Keith Street, Glasgow, G11 6QQ. There are new arrivals everyday at the moment and a lot of beautiful pieces in the debut show + BLOOM +. It's not to be missed!

Welcome Home

It's been a long time coming (remember this), but I finally have some good news to share. Welcome Home will open it's doors on Saturday 3rd October in Glasgow's west end! Watch this space... you can also follow Welcome Home on twitter and facebook for updates

David Lynch had directed Dirty Dancing. This video can't be embedded but is well worth a watch (found on creative review).

Studio Glithero have applied this blueprinting/sun-sensitive technique to ceramics for Craft Punk, such a lovely idea...
