A couple of weeks ago a friend of ours, Patrick, moved onto a new job. He had been the receptionist in our building and we were sad to see him go – so we threw him a small leaving tea party in May’s garden.
There were picnic blankets and chairs laid out…
Pots and jam jars of pretty spring flowers and branches of blossom…
Sophia hung bunting from the trees…
Strawberries and cream…
And chocolate cake…
With a mix of vintage plates to eat our strawberries and cake from…
Here’s Patrick digging into his chocolate cake – we are so going to miss him but wish him the best of luck in his new job!
We were also accompanied by two fairy princesses who were face painting those of us who were brave enough!
We are doing a lovely piece of consultation and market research on the Irwell Sculpture Trail.
Soon to be relaunched, the Sculpture Trail runs from Salford Quays up to Bacup – approximately 30 miles along the River Irwell dotted with sculptures.
For our first day we were set up outside Salford Museum and Art Gallery on an incredibly hot day. Our stall, which has been lovingly designed for this piece of consultation, features bunting, pots of spring flowers, and a map of the trail.
We also set up an Easter kids activity on some picnic blankets – making Easter nests from hay and filled with chocolate eggs and a yellow chick.
Over the next couple of weeks we will be out at various locations along the Sculpture Trail to speak to people about the sculptures and find out how people find out about places – especially whether people like the idea of new technologies such as downloadable audio tours and QR codes.
