Processions in Somerset
Somerset Arts Works (SAW) is part of PROCESSIONS, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take part in a mass participation artwork to celebrate one hundred years of votes for women.
See our Somerset project blog:
Somerset Art Works is delighted to announce involvement in PROCESSIONS, marking the centenary of the Representation of the People Act, which gave the first British women the right to vote.
PROCESSIONS invites women* and girls across the UK to come together on the streets of Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh and London on Sunday 10 June 2018 to mark this historic moment in a living, moving portrait of women in the 21st century.
Somerset Art Works is one of 100 commissioned organisations, working with women artists in the lead-up to the event, as part of an extensive public programme of creative workshops to create 100 centenary banners which will form part of this vast artwork.
The banner-making workshops will focus on text and textiles, echoing the practices of the women’s suffrage campaign and will be places to consider the power of the vote today and our shared future. The banners made will represent and celebrate the diverse voices of women and girls from different backgrounds.
Bristol based artist Dorcas Casey has been commissioned by Somerset Art Works to lead creative workshops with students from Strode College in Street and Richard Huish College in Taunton.
PROCESSIONS is produced by Artichoke, the UK’s largest producer of art in the public realm, as part of 14-18 NOW, the UK’s official arts programme for the First World War centenary.
Helen Marriage, CEO Artichoke said:
“The 100th anniversary of the passing of legislation which made universal suffrage unstoppable is a moment both for celebration and reflection. Individuals and groups up and down the country, including Somerset Art Works, will be at the heart of this UK-wide artwork. What they make and bring to their chosen procession on Sunday 10th of June will form part of a unique living portrait of women today.”

My local beer ~Severn Valley Aleway~
Bewdley Brewery:
Severn Valley Railway:
This beer is brewed to mark the Golden Jubilee year of the Severn Valley Railway, 1965-2015.
Tasty hoppy beer for summer.
It's so refreshing and is great with fatty food like fish and chips, curry, pizza, BBQ, etc, all British favourite dishes.
Alc 4.3%
I forgot to mention it but I guess the beer is available at Severn Valley Railway Kidderminster and Bridgnorth stations. Not sure but I think it is.

Blur - Song 2 (Woo Hoo) lyrics
No copyright infringement is intended. Enjoy (:
I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No
[chorus]
Woo-hoo
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you
I got my head down
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem
[repeat chorus]
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Oh yeah
