SUMMARY:Launch Night: 'Spectrum of Expression' - A Team Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Come along to the launch night of the A Team’s ‘Spectrum of Expression’ art exhibition on 24th October at The Vale 6-8pm \nWe have been working with Mossley’s A Team to create artworks and co-curate an exhibition of their work across Mossley this October.  The A Team are a group of autistic people aged 14+ and their family and support network. Working in the mediums of clay\, photography and paint they have explored expressing their interests\, what the group means to them and their own artistic expression for the past 3 months. \nThe exhibition is open to view at The Vale from 25th October for one week – for full viewing schedule click here. \n“I have loved the friendly\, safe environment to be creative. I have learnt a lot about photography and enjoyed every session.”  (Theresa – A Team Participant) \n“The A Team are so excited to be working with the Vale on the art project. Members of the group have expressed how being creative is not only fun and relaxing but it helps the group to talk freely and comfortably in a welcoming and supportive space which is hugely beneficial to their wellbeing. The exhibition will be an opportunity for the group to express  individuality \, as well as raise awareness of autism & neurodiversity and what support is out there should anyone need it.” (Jacky Ellison – A Team) \nThis exhibition is kindly funded by Mossley Parish Council\, Tameside Creative Fund and part-funded by the UK government through the Flexible Local Authority Grants. \n

SUMMARY:Sunday Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Sunday 18th January\nJoin us for an afternoon of fabulous live music at The Vale as part of our Monthly Sunday Sessions 1pm – 4pm. \nA relaxed afternoon of excellent live music in a welcome environment perfect for the whole family. Grab a drink from the bar\, bring some pals\, your kids\, sit and listen or maybe even join our house band for a number or two. And best of all its free! We hope to see you there! \nIf you’re interested in playing at our Sunday sessions then please do get in touch as we’d love to hear from you! \nOur house musicians will be playing a mixture of Latin and Brazilian vibes with an informal ‘Pagode’ style set with a unique Mossley flavour.  Pagode is a type of samba originating in Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil. Distinguished by rhythmic improvisation\, its acoustic sound is created using a variety of percussion instruments\, song and string instruments such as Cavaquinho and guitar. \nWith special guests Laura Smyth and Ted Kemp\n \nAs interpreters of traditional English folk\, Mossley based Laura and Ted breathe life into old songs found in archival manuscripts\, recordings and broadside ballads\, as well as their own compositions inspired by folklore and local legends. They take a no-nonsense approach to their arrangements with uncompromising acapella harmonies or stripped-back accompaniments on banjo\, cello\, concertina\, and guitar\, allowing the songs to shine through. Their album “The Poacher’s Fate” was met with critical acclaim\, being short-listed for album of the year by FRoots magazine\, and described as “…destined to become one of the most important releases of the year” in RnR.

May involve sketching\, brainstorming\, creating a team plan. \n\nWeek 2 – Will be about making\, building and problem solving. At the end of this session we should have a working prototype. We aim to generate some electricity via pedal power and have a list of tweaks to improve the technology. \nSign up for free here (maximum 10 attendees per session).
