Hello - Let's Do Nice Things

'Let's Do Nice Things' has a website, it's here. 

I made this at the Art Club at Shop, Christmas Steps, which was part of 'Let's do Nice Things' takeover last week. I made things what I was told to make. 

Three Nice Things in Bristol

One: Bentleg - Lets Do Nice Things 

Pop up galleries, life drawing, film showing (Miranda July's 'Me andYou and Everyone we Know' on Mon 26th July at Shop the Shop)

Two: Shop 

A lovely community interest company, vintage clothing and stuff and lots of community arts events. They say: "Shop envisages a world where businesses value people and sociability over profits – and creativity is acknowledged as and encouraged to be an essential part of life. SHOP exists to provide a retailing experience which focuses on conscious consumption and prioritises fair prices and original fashion. This consumption provides the financial means to use the shop space as an arts venue for the benefit of the whole community."


Three: The Happy City Initiative


They say: "Whoever you are, whatever your background, Happy City is here to help you make the most of your street, your community, your neighbourhood, your city. Maybe you’ve got a bright idea and need help making it happen? Perhaps you’ve got a little time to spare or some knowledge or experience to share? You might have an established organisation, looking for inspiration, ideas and people keen to help out…

Happy City exists to spread happiness. To bring people together, making connections between communities so people like you can make the change you want to happen. We don’t promise funding or formality. But you can be sure there’ll be no fat cats, forms to fill out or hoops to jump through. Just normal people like you, working together and using what we’ve already got to make our city better, brighter and happier than ever before."
