It Starts! With makeshift galleries. Click here for pics

Well the Creaturemag festival is off to a great beginning at the Salisbury International Arts Festival 23rd May – 8th June. The first weekend of this diverse festival is occupied by Salisbury Live, an entire bank holiday weekend with every venue throughout Salisbury jam packed with great local bands and artists playing to eager music fans. This was the ideal showcase for the first Creature Guerilla galleries. Early on Thursday morning, we whacked up our first gallery on the gates of the Fisherton Mill Gallery (images to follow). Created in collaboration with Bob Milners project, PEEP! this gallery displayed a few of his own satirical drawings which take a mighty swipe at the state of the modern art world, and the “artist” culture as a whole. They have non-conformity written all over them.

Our first official, real, proper gallery… in a pub!… continued. Click here for pics

Thanks to our friendly local landlord at The Winchester Gate we have managed to set up a slightly less makeshift gallery on the walls of their music room. With regular gigs and a thoroughfare to the garden this gallery will receive a lot of exposure. It has attracted a fair amount of attention and much to our delight has also managed to sell a few prints. We have now been offered this as a permanent space within which we plan to develop and rotate the artworks displayed. On display at the moment (30th May- 8th June) Julie Vermeille, Bob Milner, Jesse Jermyn, Natalie Kay Tom Mason. If anyone is interested in displaying here then please contact Creature@creaturemag.com.

There are plenty more Creaturemag shenanigans to come from the Creaturemag team during June and throughout the summer. Ending at the End of the Road festival in mid September. You can keep up to date with progress here and for thiose wishing to see some of the things we are getting up to we will be publishing a full itinerary very soon… watch this space.
