Yay! News on the next Tolkien art exhibition at Moreton!



I see Malcx has a post up at Torn about the next art exhibition which will be held in Moreton in Marsh, UK next spring. It's going to be called 'Edge of the Wild' and will feature this great new piece by Ted Nasmith of Bilbo and Gandalf being carried over the Misty Mountains. Full details of the event can be found here

and I can't stress enough how worthwhile a visit would be to anyone within striking distance or even planning a trip to the UK next year. This will be the sixth of these events I've attended and I simply can't wait, but even for the first time visitor, you will get a great welcome. I'm meeting Malcx for dinner tomorrow night so I'm hoping to find out more but I do know Chris Tolkien [Hilary's grandson] will be there signing copies of the new book, 'Wheelbarrows at Dawn'. And if you turn up on the Sunday, the nerd in the ranger costume will be me!

Thanks. Well there was a date for the Friday preview but no Month attached to it which meant that it could have been March or April if it is in 'Spring'.
Will do my best to get there for something will have to check the diary and find out what my health is doing.

P.s. I would make a better hobbit than a ranger figure-wise but emotionally? Well give me a camp-fire rather than a stove any day.
