MMOA (Making More of Outdoors Art):
Making More of Outdoor Arts is a research, conversation and thinking project. It has been commissioned by Arts Council England West Midlands and led by Helga Henry (of Creative Shift), and Orit Azaz (independent artistic director and consultant ). We’d like you to get involved in the project and this is our first invitation to you to do so.
They’re having a free launch event at the hippodrome on Saturday 26th October.
The first scheduled event in this series is an afternoon symposium based around the Illuminate Festival in Southside, Birmingham.
We are delighted to announce that, in addition to hearing about our plans for future events and to find out what you would like, we will have a chance to hear from Mark Murphy: choreographer, story-teller and creator of outdoor spectacles such as The Land of Giants, The Liverpool 08 European Capital of Culture Opening Show, and The Preston Passion. The founder and formerly the director of V-TOL, Mark will share some insights around the theme of “Light: working out of doors with light and fire.
The event is free but you need to register through eventbrite.
