We had a very successful trip to Chelmsford on Thursday to look at venues to hold the launch of the Eastern Region Textile Forum. A couple were suitable but the Anglia Ruskin University was definitely our favourite and the venue we hope to use. Hopefully by next week we will have finalised venue and date and I will be able to publish details on this blog.
Looking around and discussing details has made me feel that this might actually happen- a forum based in this part of England might finally give Textile Art the profile it deserves.
