Museum of Rural Life

We have been speaking with the Museum of English Rural Life in Reading about working together. It is a great space that serves both as a library, cataloguing the history of rural life, and a museum that reveals the the shifting aesthetics of practical objects over time. This will be an ideal place for artists to find inspiration and knowledge on the First Food Residency. Currently there are projects at the museum to expand the museum and develop public engagement and creative spaces. There is an open day tomorrow (October 4) where these projects will be presented to the public. For more information see Anna Bruce's article:
