Call for proposals

Hey kids,

This is what Graeme and me wrote earlier and has now been sent out to the mailinglist, facebook group members and on myspace:

Hi there,

Firstly, all of us at the hydeOut would like to extend our thanks again to those who came down to the opening meeting on the 27th November. It was really good evening which it seems was enjoyed by everyone - the mulled wine was a particular hit!

We have now ploughed through the postcards that everyone kindly filled out but unfortunately for those of you who requested a fight club or a vegetable garden, you may be sadly disappointed…

On the whole, there was general enthusiasm for art and photography exhibitions but there were a number of calls for open mic nights, workshops and film and illustration projections. We now need to start forming plans for exhibitions and events for after Christmas. So those of you who already have art, music or film that you’d like to have exhibited/shown/performed, and anyone who’s got a definite idea for something specific they’d like to do in the space, please email us your proposals, with pictures or links to your website/myspace/facebook/youtube, and we can get the ball rolling! Our email is hydeoutgallery@googlemail.com. Or if you’d prefer to talk to us in person over a cup of tea, just get in touch and we’ll meet you for a chat.

With the festive season fast approaching and many of Hyde Park’s residents heading for homes in other places, we’re asking that artists try their best to and get proposals to us by Tuesday 18th December (just under two weeks time), so we can start putting together plans ASAP.

Much as we’d like it to be, we can’t guarantee that your work will be shown, but we want to find out what is being produced around Hyde Park and the surrounding areas and if we can fit you into a particular theme or event we’ll do our best to do so!

Look out for future updates related to the goings on at hydeOut. The planning for our first exhibition is already underway and once we have a date, you’ll be the first to know.

Cheers,

The hydeOut team x
