kelvin j birk

London

Kelvin J. Birk produces jewellery as well as larger objects, mainly in silver and gold with all types of gemstones. Within his work he crushes precious gemstones and glues them back together, sometimes in a random uncontrolled shape, other times in a more controlled manner and then combines these stones with jewellery pieces or objects in precious metal. Within his work he is consciously disregarding what is traditionally considered precious. Birk revels in a lack of control, allows chaos to take over and the nature of the precious materials to dictate the final outcome of the pieces. His collection is constantly developing and through different creative processes new pieces emerge all the time, ensuring that no two are identical. Like the experiences of personal life, there is always destruction and loss yet out of these processes come new things and new orders. Kelvin J. Birk’s jewellery illustrates this theme of chaos and re-creation. There is always order in chaos, we lose things and we gain things. It is a constant. After Graduating in Goldsmithing and jewellery making at the Berufsfachschule fuer Glas und Schmuck, Germany, Kelvin J. Birk took his MA in Silversmithing and Jewellery (awarded with distinction) from the Sir John Cass Faculty of Art in London, UK (1997). Kelvin exhibited at various fairs and exhibitions in Great Britain, Europe, the USA, China and Taiwan. His work won him several prizes and awards and he received several grants from different funding bodies. His work has been featured in numerous magazines, newspapers and in a range of jewellery and design books. Kelvin is available for consultations and happy to discuss special commissions and bespoke pieces. He became a specialist in up-cycling old jewellery, where he recycles your unworn jewellery into a stunning new wearable piece of jewellery.

workington transport heritage trust

Workington

Steelworking still has a presence in Workington in the shape of the TSP heavy engineering works. The last part of the main steelworks disappeared in 2005 with the closure of the rail mil and long welded rail plant. Rails had been made in Workington and exported over the world for 128 years. Leyland established its national factory in 1971 at nearby Lillyhall. Over a life of less than a quarter of a century the factory despatched thousands of Nationals, Lynxes, Olympians, Titans and rail buses. As well as being bus (and rail) enthusiasts, we want to mark the unique contribution of the town to the country’s economic and cultural development. WTHT (Workington Transport Heritage Trust) Our vehicles include a number of buses, fire engines and other vehicles some of which are used in community events. Volunteers are engaged in restoring, maintaining and operating these historic vehicles. We have an extensive archive of local bus and rail material. This includes posters, signs, publicity materials, books, magazines, drawings, photographs, and petrol pumps. Our shop at Workington railway station sells hot & cold drinks, snacks, souvenirs, WTHT branded items and second hand books. It is by the main waiting room and, in normal times, it is open Mon to Saturday from 9am to 2pm, closed on bank holidays. All hours are subject to volunteer availability. Using our heritage buses, we usually run local free bus services on Boxing Day, plus park and ride services at a number of local shows. Our premises are home to around 16 of our own vehicles plus 11 privately owned guest vehicles. Not all of these are currently fit for the road. We work with groups which include Cumbria Omnibus Group, The 550 Group, Barrow Transport Group, Carlisle Bus Group, and a number of individual owners. We have two sites only one of which has a building – but we are working on curing this fault! We are grateful for the support of our members, and local businesses including Stagecoach North West and Northern Rail. We have volunteering opportunities in all aspects of restoring, maintaining and driving vehicles. Also in buildings and site maintenance, cataloguing & running our archive, producing educational materials, running trips and events, and fundraising.

the art in martins

Hello! I'm Michelle and I live in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire. I am a qualified teacher who, after 26 years rewarding years, has left the classroom behind her to pursue a passion for all things creative. Through my business, The Art in Martins, I aim to share this with others. In 2007 I attended a Stampin'Up party and fell in love with the products and have used them to create my own cards, gifts and memory books in my spare time. Becoming a demonstrator in 2020 seemed like a perfect step for me. Not only do I get to be creative, I can use my teaching skills when running parties, workshops and classes, offering fresh project ideas and encouragement to my customers and friends. For me, helping someone put together that perfect project for a special occasion is the best feeling in the entire world. After all, creating cards, scrapbook pages, and gift items is about more than just stamps and ink—it’s about sharing a part of yourself with the people you love.

An Opening... Photos have been processed and books have been printed! The last of the photos are up and looking very much like autumn. It is the season I am afraid! Lots of leaves that seem to have fallen off the trees in a very short time. They are everywhere! Montage Flickr has been sorted and you can view links to my pictures and to Declan's. You too can be bored by the mountain of pictures that we find interested. Needless to say this is coming from all over the world so please feel free to enjoy! Hopefully this will be a source of information/amusement to all our far flung relatives and friends. For those more technically able you can also find profiles on facebook! You can all come together to enjoy our little montage! Since you choose to live in various parts of the world and we can't always come to you (although free flights are always welcome!) you can come to us! Feel free to comment and get in touch although we reserve the right to ignore!

Southampton

During a Rotary club visit to Arusha, Tanzania in 2012, Jeanette Johnstone visited a government school and found a serious lack of teaching resources. A trip to the local library found it full of serious students with no computers and a limited number of quality text books. “I was really, really confronted by the lack of opportunity for people outside the School of St Jude (a school in Arusha established by Australian Gemma Sisia and where she had been staying while in Tanzania) and thought I’d like to put some effort into looking at different ways we might be able to assist,” Jeanette said. “Their desire for education blew my mind.” While the internet may be seen by many to be the answer this was found not to be the case. The internet was too slow and too expensive to support proper online learning, and it was being reported that student results in the Tanzanian National Exams had dropped in places where students had access to the internet. (Presumably due to the distractions of social media). Another solution was needed.
