dear residents of stroud green and further afield if app. im Jonny
Rogers, of BRAND NEW START we made a lot of progress with our project
that was to be relocated to the mews behind the old dairy last
september, sadly as has been the case (e.g david gray studio )
developers did what they do with the help of the similarly money
grabbing agents and took this premises to convert to flats. an
industrial site originally part of the old dairy and still in the same
family for two hundred years, the setting , the location, and the locals
were all perfect and a live work creative centre that taught all its
occupants skills to all who wish to learn and develop their own style
and hope fully grow to become a live work teach back resident who
supports our amazing project. we are now in our 6th month of succesfull
growth in the gallery at 44 to 46 hornsey high street n8 7nx where
without the premises behind it we have accomplished inclusion of all
ages and abilities in numerous artistic and creative fields. we are
gaining momentum to get funding (any help appreciated) we have 7 strong
indivuals supporting us on the ground and the local social sites have
all made us grow to now be offering restoration courses, art,
photography,instrument making, cartooning , upcyling, papier machie, and
many more as we grow all in the gallery, live music film and theatre
twice a month and community led affairs as and when needed and we can
accomodate. ill admit its all been much harder to do this having lost
momentum and the amazing premises we had under offer to us at the time.
our heart is full of joy and strong. this due to the amazing feedback
and support we gained by showing our diversity and ability to adapt from
an events space spearheading the live work creative community
www.BRANDNEWSTART.org project to a all inclusive multifuncton art
gallery, antiques and collectables , vintage clothing , live music, tea
and cake room, teaching skills high street venue. I just thought an
update was in order and to let you all know we wont be coming to stroud
green now (unless another building comes up there) but we are not going
far, n8 is the central point and hornsey high street out base so we will
still be as close to that as we can get . yours sincerely jonny rogers
