bOing! will once again welcome one of the luminaria created by Architects of Air, plus there will be lively outdoor performances include a ‘Campervan of Love’, Bill & Bobby dancing in a bath, bangra drumming and the Bollywood Brass band, plus crazy hairdressers from Barcelona.

Workshops are an important part of bOing! and visitors to the festival in 2018 will have the chance to turn their hand to animation, puppetry, bangra drumming, crime scene investigations and boat-hat making.

On Friday 24 August, bOing! will hit the streets of Canterbury with Cohesion Plus performing bangra, plus the Bollywood Brass Band and a hip hop street battle all the way from Australia.

President’s Letter CAC does what is on the lid of the metaphorical tin. It is an advisory, deliberative or administrative body of volunteers, formally constituted meeting regularly, encouraging and promulgating the multifarious artistic activities of the inhabitants of this great city and district. It does so in response to a continual outpouring of artistic endeavour and creation in every medium by individuals, collectives, groups, clubs and societies. Canterbury hits above its weight in artistic engagement, each and every day of the year associated with an exhibition, concert, drama, recital, reading or dance. Canterbury and District is creatively vibrant and CAC channels the surging flow ensuring support and encouragement for our many registered groups and societies. Small grants, scholarships and publicity follow such engagement underpinned by financial support from local Education and Church establishments and the generosity of our sponsors Stephen and Ann Gerlis, the Nevill Arts Trust and others.

At times of uncertainty there is something reassuring about the truths that can be discovered in artistic endeavour whether in reinterpreting the past or commenting on the present. The Arts act as firm foundations when other elements of our landscape rock and sway in the geopolitical headwinds that batter our shores. Economic, political and social changes impact on our communities who can find solace if not complete solutions in the creative and recreative expressions of fellow beings. CAC is the conduit for such ideas, interpretations, opposing or confirming views and opinions.

I thank the committee for its diligence and hard work and look forward to another year of dynamic artistic engagement in Canterbury and District.

Professor Grenville Hancox MBE

Josephine Harvatt “I had a very busy year. I made over 70 pieces of work including a series of 50 paintings for my GIVE THEM SHELTER exhibition in aid of the homeless, which Canterbury Arts Council helped to publicise. To date I have made £1750 for charity from this self initiated project.”

In the summer I helped create the “Flogging a Dead Horse” public artwork in Herne Bay and participated in the Oyster Festival Art Trail at Whitstable Museum. I was shortlisted for the Jon Bird Art Prize and had other work exhibited at the Oxo Tower Gallery in London and Lovely’s Gallery in Margate. I was also guest artist at the Alexander Centre in Faversham from January onwards”

Two talks happened, one on mediaeval ideas about the signifiacence of Gothic Cathedrals with Dr. Jeffrey Miller, of Cambridge University and the other on works of Aldhelm, a pupil of Theodore and Hadrian, with Sherborne authority, Katherine Barker. Our Festival concert was another sell-out. Chant for Bishops and Abbots was alternated with poetry and readings about Theodore and Hadrian. In November, some of us sang a London lunchtime concert in the City Church of St. Lawrence Jewry with organist Catherine Ennis, ‘Chant for the Canterbury Saints’.

Kent Youth Theatre WE ARE: KYT

This year was yet another winner for all involved at KYT. We have seen so many wonderful new students who are discovering our unique performing arts training and relishing the opportunities we provide them: from acting classes to stage and screen performances from masterclasses to professional engagements. Each new term brought fresh and exciting challenges for the students. As always, they accepted the tasks and grew with confidence on their journey. From stage-combat and improvisation; comedy classes and magic lessons the breadth of experience and education remains unrivalled under one roof.

The Lindley Players The Playhouse Theatre Whitstable’s resident Lindley Players enjoyed a bumper year of drama starting with their award-winning productions of A Tale of Two Cities and Boeing Boeing.

These were followed by the colourful Jack the Ripper the Musical in July and historical drama The Lion in Winter in September.

October saw the Rise and Fall of Little Voice followed by a showcase of our young talent in the Lindley Youth Theatre’s Double Bill Totally Over You and Girls like That. We rounded off 2017 with Immaculate.

2018 commenced with our pantomime Robin Hood and the Babes in the Wood and we concluded the year with The Merchant of Venice.

Whitstable Choral Society Whitstable Choral Society, under the leadership of Dr David Flood, has gone from strength to strength over the last twelve months. We have attracted a number of new members to this highly regarded Choral Society. We have staged three very successful concerts. In summer 2017 we performed the ever popular Haydn Creation in the Cathedral. This was followed in the autumn by a complete change of style when we performed the Requiem by Bob Chilcott and Beethoven’s Mass in C. After our annual carol concert in December the final concert

for the period was the lesser known but very beautiful Stabat Mater by Haydn and the much loved Requiem by Faure.

Canterbury Three Cities Association Much of last year was dominated by our international photographic exhibition, held at venues in Herne Bay and Folkestone. We showed over 70 photographs, depicting life and scenery in Bloomington-Normal, Vladimir and Canterbury. Judging by the comments in our visitors’ book, the exhibitions were much appreciated. Members also enjoyed several talks, including on US Presidential Inaugurations and Anna Karenina, a summer garden party, and a dinner and talk on American Thanksgiving Day.

The Really Promising Company

This year, the company reached it’s tenth anniversary! We celebrated with an evening of laughter, food and songs from our productions over the decade; enjoyed by old and new alike.

Furthermore, we returned to the Marlowe Theatre, where it all started. This time enthusiastic amateurs, still using professional direction, performed Canterbury Belles, a home grown, original murder mystery

musical, in the intimate space of the Studio. Tickets sold well, the audience enjoyed the drama and the company felt we’d come home!

Whatever next? Well…..our recent stagecraft workshop is just the beginning of the next adventure…..What do you know about Emma Hamilton?

SIDNEY COOPER [email protected] or Tel: 01227 453267 5 May 10:30-12:00 and 14:00-15:30 Drawing Materials - Clay, Charred Wood and Wax

FREE WORKSHOPDrawing Materials is an evolving series of material-led drawing sessions devised by artist Bethan Lloyd Worthington. Each

session is themed around a particular material - making drawings of a thing in its own matter. Participants look closely at and draw raw materials. Drawing is a way of spending time with a thing, and so understanding it more deeply. No experience required.

The prevalence of illnesses related to memory difficulties, such as dementia is on the rise with 7.7 million new cases of dementia being identified each year. There are many ways to help memory, including physical exercise. Researchers have found that acute physical exercise such as 40 minutes of cycling has a positive effect on memory.
