Wakefield Artwalk MArch 2014

For the March 2014 Artwalk, we will be hosting two artists - Carol Hanson and Tom Box. Call into our office at 19 King Street between 5 pm and 9 pm on Wednesday, 26th March to see the exhibitions and meet the artists.

For full details of what is showing across Wakefield for the March Artwalk go to the Artwalk website.

Carol Hanson

Artist Carol Hanson is working in partnership with three King Street venues, Wakefield Civic Society, Jordan’s Solicitors and the Well Women Centre on a one-off not to be missed joint project that encompasses all three King Street buildings.

A pop-up ‘cartoon business’ inspired by the memories and stories associated with King Street’s heritage will be erected for the night of the ArtWalk only. The art will have a special mention to the connection the street has to the old cinema and photographs to the Art Deco period taking you on a trip down memory lane with pop up characters telling you the tale of King Street and the union of the venues.

For Wakefield Civic Society an animated piece will be projected in the 6-seater cinema. Carol also intends to create a box office window, ice cream seller and fancy entrance on the wall containing the door into the tiny cinema.

This work has been commissioned and funded by The Art House for Wakefield Artwalk.
