welcome

as we enter a new Year staff at the ropewalk are not sad to say goodbye to an annual

tradition, pot hole filling (apart from Pete who will miss riding on the roller). I hope that you have noticed phase 1 of our exterior improve-ments, the newly surfaced prome-nade. This was made possible thanks to funding from LEADER, Mark & Ian proudfoot and arts Council england. phase 2, an artist designed fence and gate, will follow shortly.

new for 2012 are a range of courses that have been requested at different times to suit your other commitments so look out for evening classes in jewellery and yoga and Sunday morning printmaking. In 2012 The Ropewalk is attempting to find when and why you visit us and I hope that you will spend a few minutes of your time completing a questionnaire. anyone who wishes to add their details will be entered

in a quarterly draw to win a £25 voucher to spend at the ropewalk on a meal, a film, tickets for events, a piece of glass, jewellery, artwork, framing……. you decide. If you want to be kept up to date with what we are up to please like us on Facebook, sign up to our email newsletter or just pop in and ask.

Finally I would just like to say thank you to everyone who has contributed to the Water aid book swap, you have contributed a huge £1,000 during the year. In march we shall be supporting Driftnet poets as they present an evening of poetry and music with all proceeds going to Water aid.

meryl Till (above) utilises the transparent qualities of porcelain to great ef-

fect in her range of table lamps, wall lights and hanging shades. the ce-ramic lights with delicately pierced patterning create a wonderful warm glow with either electric or candle light.

Hannah Nunn, (right) who runs her own lighting and craft boutique in Hebden Bridge produces a

collection of beautiful paper-cut lighting inspired by the natural world. Employing both a hand cutting technique and laser cutting technology she is able to construct incredibly intricate designs that allow the light to wash into the room.

although each use different media Denise Brown and Linda Miller both draw on

the coast for inspiration and both share a quirky sense of humour.

the lighthouses, beach huts and fishing boats of the East Anglian coast present Denise Brown with the subject matter for the decoration on her range of stoneware ceramics. Based on a working farm in the heart of the Fenland countryside, using coiling, press-forming (in her own handmade moulds), and slab-building techniques, she produces plates, dishes, vessels and oak framed tiles. The images are drawn using a simple craft knife and then washed with copper carbonate to colour the design outline before being decorated with dry glaze to create a warm, weathered look.

Linda’s colourful naive and humorous machine embroideries feature smiling, happy figures that look as though they come from the pages of a children’s storybook. She embroiders on to heavyweight cotton using an industrial Bernina 950 sewing machine and a wide selection of viscose, silk and metallic threads.

Linda has work in the Arts Council South east Collection and within the Permanent Textile and Dress Collection at the Victoria and albert Museum.

She has featured in the television series ‘Kirstie’s Handmade Britain’ and her first book “Creative Machine Embroidery” was commissioned and published in 2010 by a&C Black.

Featured jeweller : Jane Moore

From her workshop in Leam-ington Spa jewellery design-er Jane moore is reinventing

the ancient art of enamelling: the process of fusing glass to

metal. Using modern tech-nology her patterns are designed on computer and printed as a transfer then fired on to a base coat of white opalescent

enamel. This technique has enabled Jane to create

much finer, more complex patterns that clearly show the influence of Japanese print

design, while the surrounding oxidised silver adds a feeling of

1950’s nostalgia.

Jane’s work will be on sale in the Craft Gallery from January 2012



exhibitions

tony Snowden’s paintings are linked by what he calls “a sense of the suspended mo-

ment”. These small, dark paintings of figures in a romanticised land-scape are sombre in mood: they seem to hint at a hidden narrative or what the artist refers to as an ‘evocative ambiguity’. Originated from draw-ings done in situ and then worked from memory, they record a brief moment in time, a chance meeting or encounter - a glimpse into the everyday that is transformed and absorbed into the painter’s idealised reality.

tony lives and works in Beverley, east Yorkshire – a fact that is often referenced in his titles – and has exhibited many times at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition as well as other galleries throughout the country including solo shows at the Beverley minster in 2010 and the Feren’s Art Gallery, Hull in 2004.

Tony Snowden: ‘New paintings’ opens in Gallery one on January 14 and continues until February 26.

Chris Harland, selector for the themed photo exhibition had a difficult but interesting ‘time’ choosing work for the new show:

“I was very impressed with the wide array of different interpretations of the ‘time’ theme. Ranging from long exposure pho-tographic captures portraying movement and the passage of time to simple, classic images which illustrate those moments we all experience when time seems to stand still for a moment, giving us cause to pause and reflect. The measurement of time is, after all, a man-made construct but the majority of the images submitted and selected for the exhibition reflect the spiritual aspect of our awareness of its passing, rather than the purely me-chanical. Some very interesting thought processes and interpretations are here and reviewing and selecting them has been a privilege.”

order and Chance is the title of an exhibition of textural abstract images by Lincolnshire artist Jenny Hammerton. This experi-mental body of new work says Jenny is “influenced by memories, environment and imagination.” Jenny’s work can be seen in the Artspace from March 17.

rangoon, tanganyika, Barton upon Humber …as part of our ongoing Heritage Lottery Funded project to catalogue archives from the rope factory this exhibition aims to place Hall’s Barton ropery in a historical context and examine the life of the people who worked there.

ropewalk studio artist, Wendy Chan, will be leading one of her popular workshops,

Hand Felted Jewellery Workshop, in march.

textile artist Wendy has a self-confessed passion for processes and techniques and on Saturday, March 24, she will be exploring the techniques for various components of jewellery felt making such as flats, beads, sushi beads and cords.

“Once you know the technique you can create a variety of wearable floral corsage and bracelets. “But I am sure there will be many more ideas on the day,” said Wendy. “My practice is about making an idea, a thought, a word, an image come together with the making process and then stitching these ideas into stories and projects, transforming it into a reality.”

Since graduating from Central Saint martins College of art, Wendy has been a freelance artist and workshop leader for both adults and children and has shared her expertise at many ropewalk workshops.Inspired by natural forms and colours and the use of natural fibres, Wendy describes felt making as “an

ancient textile skill that uses natural, renewable resources for limitless creation.”

The workshop costs £34 or £30 for Ropewalk members and is suitable for beginners. there will be an additional cost of £10 on the day for materials.

Whether it’s the smallest of prints to a treasured football shirt you can be as-sured that the picture framing service

at the ropewalk will not be beaten – either with its competitive pricing or its advice.

At The Ropewalk there are now a team of expert framers headed by Tina Peace who can offer that impartial advice and quotes six days a week.

Now firmly established in its new space beyond the Hall-Mark Room, Tina Peace says: “Our speciality is framing original artwork but we can turn our hand to almost anything – football shirts, war medals and memorabilia, for example, are not a problem at all,” she said.

“We are one of the few framing outlets in the area who can produce over-sized and unusual frames,” she went on. “We also have the capacity to frame for exhibitions.”

“I hope that one of the reasons why we have so many repeat customers is that we are more than happy to spend the time with our customers making sure they have the right frame and make them feel as if they are part of the service,” she added.

The Ropewalk stocks a wide range of moulding including many natural timbers such as oak, ash and beech and many plain timbers that can easily be coloured, stained or hand-painted to provide that individual finish as well as a range of ready-made frames.

New Comedy

2010, Chortle Best Breakthrough Act Nominee 2011 and after just a handful of gigs made it to the final of the prestigious ‘So You think You’re Funny’ final at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2008. You may also recognise him as a regular on Stand up For the Week.

From the west of England to the west of Germany and a comedian who has forsaken the fatherland for the past nine years to bring his own special brand of teutonic jolliness to us unworthy Brits.

You may well have heard henning wehn on BBC radio’s

“Unbelievable Truth”, “News Quiz”, “Now Show” and “Fighting Talk” or seen him on “QI”, “Dave’s One Night Stand” or “Edinburgh and Beyond” – now’s your chance to see the self-appointed German Comedy

Ambassador to the UK in the flesh in his sell-out Edinbugh show, “No Surrender”. Come along … or else. Deutschland über alles!

there are four comedy jewels scattered across the ropery Hall programme for the first

three month of the year. These gems are enough to brighten the gloom of the winter months and lift the spirits ready for a new spring.

Josh widdicome makes his first appearance at the ropewalk in February.. If This Show Saves one life… is a hilarious insight into the daily foibles of one of comedy’s fastest rising stars with observations and dilemmas we can all relate to from tales of his upbringing in a tiny village in rural Devon to his move to the bright lights.

Since his first gig in January 2008 Josh has had a remarkable impact on the comedy circuit. - he has been named FHM Stand Up Hero

Boothby Graffoe & Nick pynn following on from the success of their 2011 tour by having another jolly trip up and down the country to promote the new studio album “Is This Your Vehicle Sir?” which is released in February 2012.

For his new visit to ropery Hall Boothby has promised: Music. Funny stuff. More music. Interval. Even more music. Even more funny stuff. Encore, possibly combining music and funny stuff. End. Get kicked out of venue. Get let back in venue. Buy CD. Go home. Listen to CD. Have eggs. “Boothby Graffoe is a multi-talented, darkly hilarious, grade a British eccentric, who can twist your funny bone one minute, and break your heart the next. A musical comedy act who is more musical than most musicians, and funnier than most comedians.” - Stewart Lee, foul-mouthed left-wing comedian

Finally at the end of march we welcome Bennett arron. Following his sell-out shows at the edinburgh Festival and having supported ricky Gervais on some of his tour dates, Bennett is delighted to bring his show JewelSh to the ropewalk.

Bennett arron is both Jewish and Welsh, no joke - although it is the starting point for jokes. and being Jewish and Welsh means Bennett is never quite sure why he’s being beaten up.

music

One half of award winning female acoustic quartet, Waking the Witch, patsy Matheson and Becky Mills have continued to delight audiences throughout the uK since the group’s break up – patsy as half of a duo with Clive Gregson (Gregson & Collister, Richard Thompson Band), and Becky singing alongside Ken Nicol (Steeleye Span) and Ashley Hutchins (Fairport Convention).

now they have joined forces to support the release of their two new albums - Patsy’s “Stories of Angels & Guitars”,’ and Becky’s “‘Dandelion” - resulting in a unique and personal sound, drawing on traditional and contemporary folk, acoustic blues, R & B, jazz and rock

For more than 40 years Martin Carthy has been one of folk music’s greatest innovators. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers, Trailblazing musical partnerships with, amongst others, Steeleye Span, Dave Swarbrick and his award-winning wife Norma Waterson and daughter eliza Carthy have resulted in more than 40 albums, but martin has only recorded 10 solo albums, of which the much antici-

pated Waiting f o r angels is the

latest.

2012 looks set to be a diverse musical year for Ropery Hall if the first three months are any-

thing to go by. the choices of inde-pendent promoter’s mtm and Mad Dog Folk mixed with my own have produced a very eclectic mix of folk, blues, jazz, classical and quirky! There are too many to feature in the magazine so a glimpse of what’s to come follows with much more de-tail on www.roperyhall.co.uk. liz

paul Jones and Dave kelly need no introduction, Britain’s best blues duo will sell out quickly - you have been warned!

At the end of January we welcome Mad Jack & The hatters who bring their own brand of rockabilly to Barton. “Raw, effortless musician-ship - they will have you hooked from minute one. They are bringing the oldest forms of music back out of the closet and giving them a severe dusting-down.”

The Carnival Band has set them-selves a tough challenge – 20 countries (and a trip to the moon), 20 instruments (at least), and 80 tunes. they are the only band talented and crazy enough to attempt this in one evening! The Carnival Band turns musical convention on its head with this musical tour of the globe spanning five centuries of music. Instruments include shawms, bagpipes, ‘ud, djembe as well as fiddle, guitar, bass etc., and the band sing in full-throated harmony. Let the Carnival Band take you on an unfor-gettable audio odyssey!

Tha Carnival Band

craft

Brian Finnegan and aidan o’rourke, front men with two of the most revered bands ever to have thrilled the folk scene, BBC award winning Flook and Lau, join forces with Ian Stephenson on guitar and Jim Goodwin on drums to create an en-thralling and beautiful new sound as kaN Chris wood’s music reveals his love for the un-official history of the english-speaking people. With gentle intelligence he weaves the tradition with his own contemporary parables, his writing has been said to share the same timeless quality as Richard Thompson at his best.Since the release of The Lark Descend-ing Wood’s appeal has gone way beyond English folk music. He was invited to sing at last year’s WomeX where he garnered much praise and found many new followers.

He performed for us solo in 2011. This time aynsley lister is back with his band for a standing only gig. In-fluenced from an early age by the 60’s R ‘n’ B era, Lister takes these key elements and mixes them with a more current and melodic lyrical approach; his hard hitting rhythms and guitar work are reminiscent of a young Clapton.

Jazz masters Snake Davis and martin taylor are no strangers to the ropery Hall stage but they

return at both ends of march in very different guises.

on march 2nd Sax virtuoso Snake Davis brings his new project Snake Strings to North Lincolnshire for the first time. This is a ground-breaking collaboration between Snake and an outstanding British string quartet of Damion Browne (cello), Jayne Coyle (Viola), Raymond Lester, (Violin) and Adam Robinson (Violin).

Featuring peerless sax melody and classical strings in a fresh and in-novative crossover of classical, pop, soul and jazz, all with a Snakey twist, expect tunes ranging from “River Deep, Mountain High” and “A Little Respect” and self penned numbers to classics from Albinoni, Faure and Bach.

on the last day of march Martin Taylor brings with him a stalwart of the British jazz scene alan Barnes. touring together for just seven dates in 2012 martin and alan will play solo and collaborative sets.

award winning guitarist martin taylor has established a unique musical career; his inimitable style has seen him recognised as the world’s foremost exponent of solo jazz guitar playing. .as well as being a true guitar innovator, he is also a master concert performer, dazzling audiences with his solo shows, which combine virtuosity, emotion, humour, with a strong stage presence.

Alan Barnes has enjoyed a prolific career as a sideman, playing and recording for many bands. He broadcast regularly over a 10-year period with the BBC Big Band and radio orchestra and has toured and recorded with big band leaders, Dick Walter, Kenny Baker, Bob Wilber, Don Weller, Stan Tracey, Mike Westbrook and John Dankworth. Over the years Alan has won many British Jazz awards in alto, baritone, clarinet and arranging categories. In 2001 and 2006 alan received the prestigious BBC Jazz Instrumentalist of the Year award and in November 2003 was made a fellow of the Leeds College of music
