Field-notes
Maps have always been a source of inspiration for Iwan Bala. Their intrigue lies in their multiple meanings and their potential for subjective (re)interpretation. The map combines imagery and word in a meaningful and harmonious relationship. For this exhibition, it is this very dialogue that brought together artist Iwan Bala, and poet and playwright Menna Elfyn. She comments writing is all about field-workwe know too well that we are only passing through as we sub-consciously make our own personal field-notes. Iwan Bala and Menna Elfyn have collaborated, bringing words and images together; the pieces on show are his field-notes, in response to her poems. This exhibition offers an insight into their mutual fascination with lifting and sifting through cae hir (long field). more

Coal Dust Mandala
Coal is made from ancient carbon deposit; it could be seen to represent both our beginning, and ultimately our end. Additionally in the context of South Wales, it is loaded with socio-political meaning and symbolism. Somehow Anderson counter-balances its emotive heritage with the mysterious beauty of its actual substance; its seductive shimmering darkness. Anderson uses coal in an almost ritualistic way, on a daily basis, to make his coal dust ’mandala’. Each work is composed of a carefully executed solid form which is produced by applying layers of coal dust onto a selected piece of ephemeral material. The works take on a transcendent and poetic power. more

My Favourite Summer
Every once in a while a play comes along that reminds you of the glorious summers of your twenties. The long, hot days, that fantastic trip abroad with your mates, the moment when the girl you’ve fancied for years suddenly realises she feels the same way, and you live happily ever after. This is not that play. Instead join Dave as he spends a month working alongside a nutcase called Melvin in the summer job from hell whilst trying to save money to take the girl he loves away on holiday with him before she disappears out of his life forever. Still, at least the weather’s nice for him. more

Every event on WhereCanWeGo has been added by the organisers themselves, so you get a really good feel for what events are about.
If you're organising a public event, you can promote it for FREE by registering here ~ it works so well.
Don't take our word. See what our organisers say:
"Our family fun day this year was the best ever and a great deal of that success was from a mention on WhereCanWeGo.com. We will definitely be using it for all future events." - Lee Mill Community Association.
"We used it to promote a one day open day and it turned out to be the most effective way of getting visitors; slightly over 1/3 rd came through your site, 1/3 from posters and flyers and rather less than 1/3 from the £1,000 of local press ads we paid for!." - The Midland Gliding Cub.
