Out of town<br />
Chalkpit, an exhibition of work by eight local artists, will be at<br />
the newly refurbished coach house in Glynde Place, where<br />
Jacky Misson has recently been artist-in-residence. She has<br />
been collecting stories and memories from people in the village<br />
who remember when the local chalk pit was still active (it was in<br />
use from the 1840s right up to the 1980s). The exhibition takes<br />
place over the weekend of the 14th and 15th of <strong>April</strong> and there<br />
will be a Q&A session with the artists on the Saturday evening.<br />
Everyone (including children) welcome. (11am - 6pm, free.)<br />

an award of up to £1,000 to develop their project which will then be presented as part of the Sussex<br />
