After months of planning, secrecy and much excitement we are very pleased to announce that MollyQueen and Nottingham Collective have joined forces, with the aim to create an even bigger and better artists collective.</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For those of you who don’t know, Nottingham Collective was an artists collective dedicated to showcasing local creative talent in pop-up shops and events all across Nottingham. The brainchild of local designer maker Katie Stainer, the project’s aim was to be accessible to anyone regardless of experience or creative medium, and was especially dedicated to helping makers take advantage of opportunities they could not participate in as individuals, such as the popular annual Nottingham Christmas Market.</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Katie was often a regular exhibitor at MollyQueen events and although operating separate Collectives, Katie and Lauren shared the same passions and ideas for bringing handmade to Nottingham in a big way.</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“We were working towards the exact same goals but working towards them separately,” says Katie, “and that’s not what Nottingham Collective was about at all! It seemed silly not to work together, double our manpower and create even more opportunities and events for local artists.”</div>MollyQueenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11056824816006182101noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297278818233275696.post-38223526716291167872012-04-17T06:42:00.005-07:002012-04-17T06:42:56.633-07:00Marvellous Sneinton Market - Saturday May 5th<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">At The Night Market and the most recent Marvellous Market, the Thought box sat neatly atop a table, deftly displaying its controversial and somewhat unforgiving quote. The topic, feminism. The question... "What is Feminism to you?" The thought provoking quote provided by none other than the wonderful and incredibly not-at-all sexist, Pat Robertson. Please enjoy the quote, followed by the public response and finally, a sum-up of the most important points (in my mind). Don't forget to leave your comments. The Thought Box provides an [Open Discussion] that will change and evolve over time, as thoughts generally do. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">"[Feminism is] a socialist, anti-family, political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians." </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>What is feminism to you? </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A brilliant reason to have a rant. </span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Nothing fancy and doesn't need to be scary, its just common sense. </b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Feminism invites people to be who they are, as people, not biology. </span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Feminism has allowed me to divorce my ex-husband and not be tied to him financially. It's given me my independence. </b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Why </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">wouldn't</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> you say you were a feminist? </span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Feminism is so logical.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Never keep quiet against inequality, don't pretend it doesn't matter because it isn't affecting you. <b>My mum is the world's biggest feminist, it really pisses me off! </b>Women kick ass! <b>Feminism is a perennial cyclical issue. </b>Feminism smells better.<b> I am a closet feminist...the best kind. The men don't know what i'm up to. </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Feminism is a great idea until it is pushed too far. I like being Miss! <b>Feminism is hindered by hormones. </b>Feminism in the 19th century cant be bad.<b> Always follow your dreams. </b>Women are the answer, whatever the question.<b> I like baking, sewing, washing up and dresses. I don't need to wear trousers to feel empowered, i'm content in my own skin. </b>Peaceful women lead the world to equality. should do anyway. <b>Kate Bush, check out all her lyrics</b>. I do have balls, but they were so big they had to go on my chest.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Pat Robertson is a misogynistic, xenophobic, arrogant twat who has a cancerous and warped view of reality. He's so far out of touch that nothing he says even warrants a discussion.</b> Only the view of a dinosaur.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Does feminism even exist anymore, outside of the corporate world?</b> Feminism is divided by class and geographical location. <b>Women are the same worth as the men are.</b> It's not fair when women get treated differently to men. <b>I am a feminist when it suits me.</b> We are all equals...i'm not.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">from the Public Voice</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Thought Box has done us proud. Among the general gist of points put to us by the general public, are some really hard hitting truths and comments that surely warrant discussion. I have been through and selected some statements and aim to continue the above discussion, which means we need your input. Where do you agree? Disagree? Are there any points mentioned above that get your knickers in a twist? Or are you simply wearing boxers and wondering where you belong in this discussion?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Please.... get involved.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1) <b>Financial Independence/Freedom</b> - Its true, women have been 'oppressed' into being the home-makers in the past. Blatantly due to the fact that women actually carry the children and generally cant bear to be away from them for long, which makes sense but when did the choice element come into play? When were women 'allowed' to go out and go to college, have aspirations and careers as the men had been allowed? That to me is a very important part of feminism, choice. The choice to vote, work, have children, place our children in childcare or divorce our husbands. Do we consider this done now? surely now the focus is on increasing financial independence and freedom to everyone, whatever gender, and allowing the same rights for everyone regardless of race, sex, sexual orientation or hair colour.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2) <b>Does feminism even exist anymore, outside the corporate world?</b> - Well does it? Do women ever encounter situations where they are treated differently because of their sex? do men ever find themselves treated differently because of their sex? Are we generally quite prejudice as a species? Do differences threaten us? Are women more likely to suffer negative or ill-treatment due to being female than men are due to being male? Talk about answering a question with a question but hopefully I've made my point clearly enough.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">3) <b>Feminism is divided by geographical location and social class</b> - I like this because I feel it is very true. Not everyone has a huge understanding of feminism or where it has been in the past, or really care that much! People generally think of bra-burning man haters which is so far out of date and ridiculous that i'm going to scoff at it. *scoff*. But anyway, back to the point, feminism effects people in different situations differently. It also provides people with a choice. The only woman working in a workplace full of men may decide to forgo feminism for the time-being because it's easier to just suck it up and accept that men can be arses and get on with her job, whereas she may choose to paddle upstream against an avalanche of ignorance and fight a probably losing battle. Point being, not everyone feels the same. geographical location, social class, emotions, opinions, experiences and gender all have influences on feminism as a whole. Which all ready in un-definable and interchangeable in my eyes. Go figure.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4)<b> "Women are the same worth as the men are"</b> - One of the most poignant opinions in my eyes, written by a young child. This does seem a logical statement, especially coming from a youthful perspective, but in actuality the problems women face daily in relationships,work-life and in general are so deep-rooted in our society that simply diluting it down generation by generation is unlikely to do anything. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am a true feminist, I feel that feminism should encompass ALL inequality, be it through sex, weight, skin colour, sexual orientation or age. Somewhere along the long and winding road of feminism we have lost sight of these differences and created not a fight for equality or fairness, but an act of one-up-man-ship. Or should I say one-up-person-ship.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There comes a point when we are going to have to face up to the fact that EVERYONE is different and that these differences should be celebrated, not argued over. Hormonal imbalances, emotional instability monthly (or more), being able to handle alcohol or not, whether or not we have leg hair, spider-phobias, high or low sex drives, the ability to lose sight of yourself in a relationship, larger body mass index, spacial awareness, interest in football, multi-tasking, being a better dancer, or whether you've shaved your armpits or not. Who cares? It all boils down to basic respect for each others differences and there are millions of those!</span></div>

There’ll be conceptual pieces from a range of local artists focusing on make-up and appearance and how beauty is un-realistically portrayed in the mass media. There will also be a series of workshops and events including Yoga and relaxation therapies, nutrition based advice and recipe ideas, life coaching and more to give you a lovely sense of well-being and contentment completely separate from appearance. There'll also be a fabulous make-up artist to create beautiful works of art on your very own blank canvas.... your face! <strong>Dress Code: Clear faces or as little make-up as you dare to wear!</strong> Again, if this sounds intriguing to you and you’d like to be a part of it or have relevant art work or a business that you think will suit the evening then please get in touch with ‘Face’ in the subject box. This event is free but if you like what you see there will be a suggested donation of £2 per person that is completely voluntary and you can hand over the bar. The money will be used to fund the next event, which will be focused on Depression and Mental Health.</span></span></div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"></span><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><u><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Creative Concessions</span></span></u></div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"></span><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">We now have a home!

We’ve booked larger tables and are splitting them between stallholders at a reduced rate (for a shared table) and included the costs for arranging transport as a collective into that price.

We are booking two tables at Elvaston Castle food and craft fair on the 4th, 5th and 6th of May. The event is hosted by The All about tourism marketing group, whom I have booked through before and found very accommodating. It is a large craft fair, in a marquee and is usually very well attended due to the marketing it receives. We are looking for eight people to share the tables, at a cost of £34 each. You do not necessarily have to attend, as there will be two staff on hand each day. If you have transport and can be 'staff' on the days, the cost will be £25 and you will get a fuel donation. Any small side tables or hanging display units would be helpful too!
