LATEST ‘GREEN ROOM’ ARTISTS COMING TO PORTHCAWL

Sustainable Wales is pleased to welcome more artists to its Green
Room series of events, held at 41, John St., Porthcawl. 

On FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, at 8pm, writer Zoe Skoulding, musician Alan
Holmes, and community artist and academic, Nick Clements, will discuss
their work with the public and local artists.

Zoë Skoulding is a poet and editor, now in charge of the international
quarterly, Poetry Wales. Zoes latest book, Remains of a Future
City (Seren) was on the Welsh Book of the Year list, 2008.

One of the most exciting aspects of Zoes work is her combination of
poetry with experimental soundscapes, based on collaborations with many
musicians.

One of these is Alan Holmes, who has played in a host of adventurous
rock groups in Wales, including Ectogram, and is praised by critics for
his sheer inventiveness. This is Alans first visit to Porthcawl, an
occasion modern music-lovers should not miss.

Nick Clements helped found Pioneers Art Group in 1981, which created
hundreds of murals, mosaics, sculptures, stained glass, ceramic, and
many media art works until 2004. Pioneers worked with tens of
thousands of local people to create landmark art, as well as developing
public art commissions. Nick is now Visiting Professor at Staffordshire
and Warsaw Universities.

For a fascinating evening, Sustainable Wales hopes to see you February
4, at 8pm, 41, John St., Porthcawl, for the latest GREEN ROOM event.
Remember: those who have art have all.

Entrance is £4 for a wonderfully varied evening of performance and
debate.
