Whitstable Satallite programme

Last weekend I held my satellite event. It was brilliant. Maybe not as busy as I hoped but a really nice selection of visitors and some good discussions. Something that I would like to do again. Maybe in the winter?
Use the links below to find out more about this years Satellite program. Perhaps more importantly check out the actual Biennale program. It is full of interesting and varied events.

I have to mention a side event. Whether it was planned to coincide with the Biennale I don't know but it was the official unveiling of the Brian Haw memorial bench on the beach. And would you believe it Mark Wallinger and Chester Lang the director and maker of the film War Matters were there as well as Brian Haw's children. There was a showing on the film afterwards with speeches. I really recommend this film. Of cause in true Whitstable style; barrows, bins and bicycle baskets of flowers arrived as a back drop to the event on the beach. 'Whitstable in Flower' Competition! 'flower power' I rather think that it was timed to impress!
