Final Show :)

The final show was amazing! There was a range of different mediums used and our different interpretations of croydon were extremely interesting. at first, not many people were interested as we opened at 2 and they were on thier lunch break and in a rush, but me and Tia did a marvellous job (if i say so myself) and went all around the Whitgift centre and handed out leaflets and enticed people in. Our amazingly intelligent tactic was to talk to those who either looked as if they werent busy, like people sitting on a bench or those who were dressed a bit artyish. Most of the time people just said no or carried on walking so it was hard not to get frustrated but lots of people were deeply interested. I found it really easy to talk to people about it and I think this helped people want to come and see what was happening. After Advertising the Shop I ushered people round which i really liked as i got to hear thier interpretations of the art and then explain what the artist was trying to portray and see thier response. I was expecting some people to not like the art as it is quite modern and theres no fine art paintings anywhere but people seemed to really enjoy the work, However some people did just come for the cake :)
It was really successful and im really glad i got to participate in this project!
