Calverley Community Cinema

I have been very lax in updating information.

Behind the scenes there is lots going on (and coming up) in the village.

I have been in negotiations about a community cinema venue and we have a venue secured. 

A community cinema will be set up (with Creative Calverley being involved - whether as an audience member or something a bit more).

The first screening will be on the 3rd December and there will be a choice of three films.  To make it a community cinema we need the involvement of others.  The cinema will be set up in St Wilfrid's Church, which is a fabulous location (Views from the Pews) I have dubbed it.  (Cushions will be needed).

A true "leap of faith" by everyone at the church to allow this to happen.  Luckily Rev John Walker is a bit of a film buff so that does help.

The idea is that for the first showing we want people to vote for the film that they wish to see.  For the cinema to move forward we need to ask the community some questions, so this will be done at the first screening as well.

Workshop 15 October 2011

Well we had our first workshop on the 15 October which was knitting.

All people who had signed up to attend came (which was nice).

The ladies from Knit Wits came to pass on their extensive knowledge (which was lovely).

A good time was had by all.

(I made tea and pompoms.  The only negative was about my coffee making skills.  As I don't drink it myself I don't have a clue).

Still No Noticeboard

I have been trying to locate a noticeboard that we could use to advertise our events and workshops.

Because we have so many things happening over the next few months I quite understand why people are reluctant to put up 15 plus posters in their shop window etc etc.

We need a friendly neighbourhood site where we can put things up that is just for us.

Will keep looking.
