Cherry

A couple of weeks back we headed along to The Book Club on Leonard St for the grand beginning of the Secret Wars Euro league. Good music, plenty of drinks and a room crammed full of people hungry for the long awaited battle led to a highly charged atmosphere. London came out on top, maybe helped by a slightly biased crowd, who knows? But the judges also swung in their favour. See the highlights below…

We’ve been lucky enough to have artist Tinsel Edwards at Cherry recently on work placement. Not only has she been doing some great work here, but she’s been dragging us along to gallery openings and upping our cool credentials by quite a bit.

And we think her piece above sums up the Cherry philosophy nicely!

Have a look at some more of Tinsel’s work here on the Stella Dore website.

First Thursday in Shoreditch is a Cherry fave!

This month the first gallery on the trail was Stella Dore on Rivington street, for I-lib’s solo show.  I-lib – (I Lurk in Bushes) depicts strange anthropomorphic creatures from another world that conjure up captivating visions of love, hate, life and death…. Lots of beautiful Victorian style illustrations on found vintage paper.

‘As Tear Drops Fall’ I-libs solo show, runs until May 23rd at Stella Dore, 47 Rivington Street EC2

After a few beers at Stella Dore we didn’t quite make it to the Power in Numbers show at Bodhi Gallery on Brick Lane, but this is definitely on the list to check out this weekend!  Cure studio and Print Club London have been printing like mad all week to produce 40 different artists work in editions of 50.

Bodhi Gallery is at 214 Brick Lane E1

The night ended with a few more drinks at Dragon Bar, good laugh all round, roll on next First Thursday!
