SUMMARY:VISUALISE at 78
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary Stitched Textiles \nThe Bassett-Lowke Rooms \n\n\nSat 8 Mar 2025 – Sun 25 May 2025 \n\n\n\nAn exhibition of Contemporary Stitched Art Textiles \nWe are delighted to be hosting this new exhibition of textiles and mixed media work which has been created by the Visualise textile group. Visualise was formed several years ago\, by like-minded artists who enjoy creating diverse work with stitch as the common thread. \nThe exhibition will also feature work by internationally known textile artist and Embroiderers Guild member Nigel Cheney who is the current mentor to Visualise. \nOn display is a diverse array of abstract\, realistic and figurative art using a wide variety of media: paper\, fabric (new\, distressed and recycled) and found objects which are hand and machine stitched\, or felted to create art inspired by both the natural world and the built environment. \nThe exhibition includes textile art inspired by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and 78 Derngate itself\, with framed and small items for sale. \nCombining a look round the iconic Charles Rennie Mackintosh House before visiting the exhibition\, gardens and shop\, followed by partaking of some drink or food in The Dining Room is the perfect way to spend a glorious few hours in Northampton town. \nThere will be some ‘Meet the Artists’ days during the exhibition\, details as yet to be announced. \nThe members meet regularly in Welford\, Northamptonshire\, with the aim of promoting creativity through rigorous discipline\, underpinned by an interest in the history of textiles worldwide. \nOpening on Saturday 8th March until Sunday 25th May 2025\, closed Mondays\n10am- 4.30 pm – free admission to galleries\, shop and cafe. \nhttps://www.visualise.online/

SUMMARY:Pulman and Stilgoe: A Couple of Swells
DESCRIPTION:A Couple of Swells is the inspired pairing of two unique entertainers – Liza Pulman\, songstress\, comedienne and one-third of the iconic Fascinating Aida\, and virtuoso pianist\, songwriter and singer Joe Stilgoe.   \nTogether they combine humour and musicianship at the very highest level\, making old songs sound new and new songs feel like you’ve known them all your life. \nBoth born in the proverbial trunk\, their style has been fine-tuned from cradle to stage\, and together they have the musical and theatrical chemistry of Dudley Moore and Julie Andrews\, or Barbara Cook and Wally Harper. \nPrepare to be swept away by Joe’s dazzling piano playing\, Liza’s exquisite vocals and their beautiful\, tight harmonies as they dig into the true classics and hidden gems of Irving Berlin\, Paul McCartney\, Billy Joel and Leonard Bernstein\, and others mixed with a few new songs specially written for the show. \nThis is old-fashioned glamour in the company of two\, modern-day musical greats.
