'Find and Seek' pop-up shop

Aderice organised a pop-up shop in the corn Exchange for a whole bunch of people. It was open for around four days and in a really great location so it seemed like a great opportunity to try and sell some work. I took along the stuff I'd been selling previously (the lino prints and t-shirts). Helping to build the shop and set everything up was a nice collaborative venture but, although I would have thought that the Corn Exchange was a great place to sell prints, it turned out not to be suited to my work. I didn't really sell anything, and although the Corn Exchange is a popular tourist attraction, and is full of high end independent shops, I don't think my work is commercial enough for that environment. I thought it might be similar to Jamie's 'print stuff' but actually now I'm hoping that 'Print stuff' will be a lot more of an appropriate audience and more lucrative as a result.
