This weekend (Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 July) is your last opportunity to visit two complementary exhibitions about the natural environment at Electro Studios Project Space in Seaside Road. Erica Smith goes for a walk in the woods.
PhotoHastings has really established a creative hub for photographers in Hastings. By founding the organisation it has shown there are talented professional and amateur photographers in the town and its support and encouragement have given many photographers the confidence to produce innovative work and to stage exhibitions. HOT’s Lauris Morgan-Griffiths went along to see the summer exhibition at Stade Hall.
A fast-paced, high-impact three-man horn section forms the core of TRYPL, the band who will be featured at Jazz Hastings monthly session at the East Hastings Sea Angling Association on 2 August, Julian Norridge advises us.
There is still time to support or object to three planning proposals for 5G masts. HOT’s Erica Smith doesn’t normally get hot under the collar about 5G – but the plans for an 18m tall erection in Warrior Square have made her think twice.
Hastings is extraordinary not only in the number of artists that have congregated in the town over the years but also the art genres. The town has always been supportive of those who work outside the artistic community and generate ideas and initiatives. Turner Prize nominees Project Art Works and the Artist Support Pledge are two examples, and the Stella Dore gallery is a third. HOT’s Lauris Morgan-Griffiths was delighted to come across its latest exhibition Stronger Together, a collaboration between international photographer, Giles Duley and four chosen artists. From different countries, the artists have taken his photographs and intervened in the images.
A clear start-up date for the Queensway Gateway road remains unavailable after, according to East Sussex County Council (ESCC), Sea Change Sussex failed to keep ESCC fully updated over progress in the project, the accountability board of the South East Local Enterprise Partnership was told last week. Nick Terdre reports.
On Wednesday 20 July, activists from Extinction Rebellion occupied the Lewes offices of East Sussex County Council (ESCC) for the second day running. HOT’s Erica Smith reports on the week’s climate protests.
Photographer JJ Waller had an action-packed weekend – starting off taking photographs of the low-tide tour of the Amsterdam at Bulverhythe, documenting Pirate Weekend and he even copped a cheeky trip out to Camber Sands. This is what he says – and more importantly – what he saw!
