BARBADOS

Pop-Up Art Campus & Lounge on the grounds of Holders House

www.manifestobarbados.com

www.manifestobarbados.com/manifestobarbados-pop-up-art-campus-lounge

“What’s up with that shed?”

That was the question that started it all, an idea to do something revolutionary and different, a place for the arts if only for a little while, a Pop-Up creative space. After throwing around ideas, we finally settled on the project; The Manifesto

Barbados

Pop-Up Campus and we pitched it to the Wendy Kidd the owner of Holders House. We’re aiming to have this project ready to go by September 23rd and lead into the Manifesto festival (October 15th-16th), which also will be held at Holders House.

For those of you in the Arts world in Barbados that don’t know the name you should she’s the founder of the annual Holders Festival Season, one of the largest and renowned festivals on island. After hearing our idea she immediately jumped on board and offered us the use of the ground for free. And so the project was born.

On Sunday August 21st, we got down to the business of cleaning the shed on the Holder’s Festival Season grounds in preparation for the upcoming Manifesto Pop-Up Campus & Lounge. The lounge will provide an atmosphere for artists to exhibit their work, perform, hang out, grab a drink, and watch a few non-Michael Bay films. As this project evolves and becomes reality, stay tuned to the site for updates, as we document the whole thing.

The next move is to invite artists to showcase their best work (video installations, sculpture, drawings, paintings, etc.). We need your help! Volunteers, Artist submissions and any donations i.e. couches, lamps, rugs, books, pretty much anything that will add to the decor . Check out some pics of the space after the jump.Questions? msg us on facebook

SIDEAWALK EXPRESSIONS COMPETITION ( On Swing Bridge)

Taisha Carrington, delegate in Miss

Barbados

World. "I am organising 'Beauty with A Purpose' charity, the 'HeArt & Soul Campaign', which focuses on raising money for children affected by cancer through the arts. This project is a pivotal point in this competition, holding the most points; therefore I aspire to make my campaign great. My campaign is solely based on art, as I use art as the form of promoting awareness and raising funds while promoting art in

Barbados

and giving young artist (as well as older artist) the much needed exposure. Two main events in my campaign are the ‘sidewalk expressions’, where teams of artist draw murals on the sidewalk of the swing bridge in Bridgetown, and secondly an auction/concert to raise funds.

Below are guidelines / rules for the competition (don’t worry they aren’t hard to follow )

The competition will take place on the 6th of august 10am-4pm.

•The mural should be related to the charity (remember :children affected by cancer, whether the ribbons, words etc) be creative.

•You can work in teams of up to 5 ( that means as little as one person but no more than 5)

•You are allotted an approximate 6.5 feet x 4 feet space (one of those sections bordered by the orange stone in fig 1, so you can go to town and check it out)

•The murals MUST be done in CHALK.

•You will have 6 hours to draw your mural.

•Be on site for 9:15am ( being early is important, not to mention you get to choose the best squares)

•No profanity or rudeness in your murals

•No littering please! Or do not throw anything into the careenage.

•The press will be there! And you may be filmed periodically.

Other bits of info;

If you want to uniform your group you can! (I really encourage it)

Tell other artist you know. To apply they just need to email me with their name, age, contact information and two photos of original work.

There’s room for 18 teams.

Feel free to email me with any questions, ideas, anything."
