In our post-launch analysis, live project group Eleven all agreed that friday’s launch was a resounding success (although we maybe somewhat biased).
The prototype [displayframe] looked fantastic and the room itself had been transformed by some cork, vibrant green & ‘architectural tubes’. Even the troublesome blinds had finally been fixed! it was a shame that we didnt manage to achieve our aim of breaking out of the confines of the room out into galleries and beyond but alex did an amazing job shepherding passers-by into the exhibition with the promise of FREE TEA & COFFEE!
Once they were inside many of the public & gallery staff took the time to study our process and future visioning work. It was even said by one staff member that and the room was busier than it has possibly ever been in the gallery’s history. Now we just have to find a way to keep the Millenium Galleries open after 5pm so the Youth Forum can actually get in and use this space as its intended……
