Dear WAN JISC List,

We are delighted to announce a new publication… Ways to Wander edited by Clare Qualmann and Claire Hind with an interruption from Professor Carl Lavery,  published by Triarchy Press. www.triarchypress.net/waystowander

 

This little book is an invitation to readers to some of the many different ways to wander: 54 intriguing encounters produced by artists involved in the Walking Artists Network and beyond. Pop it in your pocket, leave it in your rucksack, share it with friends and take them on a walk, use it in creative workshops, read it as if instruction were poetry, engage with each page as visual art or as a performance activity, let it remind you of the places you’ve been or walks you’d like to do.  When the moment takes you be inspired by the variety of inventive and reflective ideas mapped out in this publication and then simply... wander.

 

You can pre-order a copy of the book: www.triarchypress.net/waystowander

We are holding a joint launch with Sheila Ghelani so join us to celebrate 2 unique publications at the White Building, London - there will be real ale and pizza from the Crate Brewery!

So, a collection.
