A Face in the Crowd


'Evaporar-Se', Federico Fernandez Gartner
Just a few days left to enjoy the BP portraits Exhibition at Firstsite. There's something there for everyone to enjoy (including kids, it was great to see school parties visiting). And the next show, Ed Gold 'Other Worlds' opens Friday evening. Another top-class photographer here in Colchester- see you there!

Song - New Opened Eyes by Tracey Thorn - anyone remember that time in 1982 when she was the best singer you'd ever heard?
New exhibition on it's way! Transforming the white walls into a photographic masterpiece.

'Ale and 'Arty


Annie's Fantasies, Colchester's finest clog-morris dancing side, will be dancing in Colchester on both Saturday and Sunday this weekend. On Saturday 3rd June they dance at the Colchester Beer Festival, run by our good friends CAMRA. Dancing about 2.30 pm. Entry to the festival is free to everyone until 3 pm, so why not get along for a lunchtime beer or cider and enjoy watching someone else work?  And on Sunday 4th they are at Roman Road Secret Gardens, again dancing from about 2.30 pm. The weather looks great both days, so why not get out and enjoy what Colchester has to offer on a summer weekend?
Song - Bobby Womack's 'You're Welcome, stop on by' performed by Etta James. Two greats of the music world for the price of one!
