Hayley & the Wirksworth Art Trail – This Weekend

Posted in 2010, A52s, Arts, Crafts, Events, People, Posts of Note on Thursday September 9, 2010| Leave a Comment »

Hayley Powell’s first piece of blacksmith art was creating the cuckoo for the field in Monsdale Lane, now better known as the Cuckoo Field. This piece of art was made when she was only 16, studying for her A Levels at QEGS. Hayley grew up in Parwich, she always loved walking around the countryside and could be seen regularly walking the family dog Axel: the Irish Wolfhound.

Not always happy with the conventional methods of learning, Hayley hunted out extra curriculum workshops and events including helping out at art workshops and then becoming heavily involved within an organisation that delivered courses on rural crafts to young people. These included dry stone walling, woodland management at Chatsworth, hedge laying and blacksmithing. Hayley was hooked.

Between studing for a Degree in Design Technology at Derby University she was able to gain work experience with blacksmith Charis Jones, who is still a massive inspiration to her. Once her degree was completed back in June, she decided to follow her heart and really make a difference to preserving the rural skill of blacksmithing.

Hayley, an Artist Blacksmith has called her new business Forever Forged .  She is committed to creating hand forged creative, yet functional items, for your home and garden. Inspired by tradition, forged with passion.

Hayley can be seen at the Wirksworth Art Trail this weekend, 10am-5pm. Her venue will showcase a wide range of fun and artistic pieces, filling the courtyard and garden of the Old Tinsmith.

Tickets for the Trail are £5 and free to under 16’s.  A fabulous opportunity to see more than 100 artists, including Lewis Noble, exhibiting their work in dozens of different venues throughout the town.  There will also be a Makers Market, stalls with food and street entertainment, including the fabulous A52s.

A selection of some of Hayley’s work, more can be seen on her website.

Posted in A52s, Events, People on Sunday September 5, 2010| 1 Comment »

Next weekend, 11th & 12th September, 10am-5pm, sees the annual Wirksworth Arts Trail and Makers Market, an opportunity to explore the town from a different perspective, to see great art in unusual places with over 100 artists displaying their talent.  Art really does take over the town. The whole town becomes a gallery with venues in private homes, historic buildings, gardens, shop windows and churches.   It is a great chance to buy affordable art, meet the artists and just be nosy having a peek inside some of Derbyshire’s most intriguing interiors!

With plenty of foodstalls, cafes and pubs to relax in and a programme of street entertainment throughout town, Wirksworth offers a brilliant weekend out for the whole family only £5 a ticket (under-16s free).

Two ‘Parwichians’ will be exhibiting, Hayley Powell and Lewis Noble with The A52s providing some of the street entertainment.

Hayley, was brought up in Parwich and finished at Derby University in June.  She has set up as an Artist Blacksmith and called her new business Forever Forged.   Forever Forged is committed to creating locally hand forged creative yet functional items, for your home and garden. Inspired by tradition, forged with passion.

The big debut for Forever Forged will be at the Wirksworth Festival and she can be found at the Old Tinsmiths.  Her work will showcase a wide range of fun and artistic pieces taking over the courtyard and garden. Come and fuel your creativity and support a dying skill.

The new website is up so that you can follow Forever Forged on this wonderful journey!  Click here to listen to Hayley talking on Radio Derby, last Wednesday, just fast forward to 14.25 minutes to hear the interview (only available until Tuesday night).

Lewis, well known in the art world, lives in Parwich and has been working in Derbyshire since 1996. Over this time he has built a reputation as one of central England’s foremost artists. His focus lies in the physical and emotional impact of the landscape on the senses and how it the experience of being in landscape effects us as human beings.

The result is a body of work that speaks to the very heart of what it means to be part of the environment around us.

There are just 3 1/2 weeks to go before the Horticultural Show on Sunday 5th September.  Over the next week we will be publishing details of the different classes.  Remember if you are a jam or chutney maker, get picking now.  Below are the new, novelty classes, so the men can start practising their trifles and all photographers can start snapping.

It’s a local event, which is just a bit of fun, but hardwork goes into setting it up, so please do support the day, either by entering or by buying the produce at the auction.

Parwich Panoramic Five raises £448.55

Posted in Events, Memorial hall, Sport on Saturday August 7, 2010| 1 Comment »

The increased entry this year (107 runners in the senior event and the junior events more than doubled) has had a positive effect on the money raised from the race evening from £ 313.00 in 2009 to £ 448.55 this year, which will go toward the Memorial Hall as it did last year.  It is envisaged that this will go towards display boards, for use by Stepping Stones and other groups.

There are so many people to thank that it would be a difficult task to list them all, but special thanks go to all the marshals, the first aiders, the ladies on registration who kept working on the timesheets long after the race was over, all our roving photographers and Sandra who organized a raffle which raised £65.00.

We received a lot of positive feedback from the runners who commented on the quality of course marking, marshaling and slick registration. Thanks to all – we are already looking forward to next year.

Families can step back in time at Magpie Mine – Saturday July 31

Posted in Events, Out & About, Peak Park, Young people on Thursday July 22, 2010| Leave a Comment »

Children can try being a lead miner, meet characters from the past, and enjoy things that go boom, bang or squelch at a free archaeological family fun day at the 270-year-old Magpie Mine, Sheldon, on Saturday July 31, 10.30am-3pm.

Peak District National Park rangers and the Peak District Mines Historical Society are staging “Magpie Mayhem,” with activities for adults and children alike.

The event is part of the Festival of British Archaeology and National Parks Week, and will include a guided tour of the site by the National Park’s senior survey archaeologist, John Barnatt.

The Peak District Mines Historical Society, which owns and manages Magpie Mine, will display scale models and genuine mining artefacts to help explain the archaeology and will talk about their work on site.

National Park area ranger Lynn Burrow said: “Magpie Mine has a really colourful history, including conflict and tragedy in the 1830s as rival groups of miners tried to smoke each other out.  We’ll be helping families explore their local history with an interactive discovery trail, and children can become a lead miner, meet historical characters, make “bradder” hats and enjoy games and activities. Families can bring a picnic and make a day of it.”

No need to book, just turn up on the day.  Magpie Mine is a mile or so from Monyash, so about 20 minutes from Parwich.
