Whilst he was up a ladder cleaning off the damaged Banksy Mild Mild West, Chris Chalkley of PRSC was handed this letter from Denise James, Project Officer for Bristol Clean and Green.
Banksy’s Mild Mild West was got at again last night 23rd June… Looks like it was the same person(s) who did the piece down at College Green.From the look of it, it was done with paintbombs or from a paintball gun… It was easier to tidy up than the last attack, mainly because there was much less of it.The piece still looks OK from a distance, but is beginning to show the strain of repeated attacks, on closer inspection.
PRSC will open their workshop doors for the Jamaica Street Open Studio Weekend. We will be lithographing China mugs. You will have the opportunity to decorate your own mug which we will fire for you… The cost will be £10.
We have been sent this flyer by a representative of one of the more “underground” groups in Stokes Croft… Inviting you all to get down to the Bear Pit and make your presence felt…
Starting on Saturday June 6th we retake an important part of Bristol which has been neglected for years.
Last day… The remaining paintings will be almost free… A few beers and they will seem like a sound investment… See you Thursday.
This Saturday, Tom Tibbett, with a little help from Rich Hogan, made flowerbeds and planted flowers on Turbo Island, using kit supplied by PRSC.
Jamaica Street Artists have adorned the former carriageworks with bunting for the upcoming Open Studios. This year’s Open studios threaten to be more professional than ever, since JSA aim to impress the Arts Council and the Great and Good, since they are aiming to buy the building and to be captains of their own destiny… Good luck to them…
Niyaz Saghari – still available… Current bid £20
Still time to collect a painting at very little money down at PRSC HQ.
Sad news that this will be the last show at the Container, which has brought some fine shows to The Croft since the opening.
Steal From Work bring another unmissable show to Bridewell…
