We are really proud.....
Room 13 starred at Bristol Cathedral on Saturday 26th November when the Dean sang the praises of our studio - in front of an audience of 350 people at the 25 years celebration of Quartet Community Foundation.
An extract from the Deans Sermon -
"let me tell you about a different project with young people. Two weeks ago I went to Room 13 at Hareclive. In the middle of a busy lunchtime, in a school in Hartcliffe, I walked through the canteen, through a small playground and into Room 13 an art studio full (and I mean absolutely full) of very small artists...Room 13 is just bubbling with fun and, wonderfully, with earnest purpose. This is an arts studio that has artists in residence and that has children excelling as artists, discovering things about art and, probably more importantly communicating things about themselves and each other that leave you humbled. It is also run by the children themselves, a management committee of children who gave me one of the best induction meetings I have ever attended...Quartet and others support that work"

Artist Richard Long supports Room 13 Hareclive!
We are really excited and pleased that the international artist Richard Long has agreed to be our Patron. Richard wrote a brilliant letter for our Book 'One day in the life of ...'
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 18:35:01
Our book 'One Day in the Life of...' now available!
In 2009, five artists came to visit Room 13 Hareclive to work with us to create artworks and generate ideas. Their names were: David Blandy, Lady Lucy, Rhys Coren, Hannah James and Aaron Sewards. They did a marvellous job. With their artwork and some of our own, we put together a book called 'One Day in the Life Of…'. We had asked a truly inspiring artist called Richard Long to introduce our book, and he has agreed and we are very grateful for this. Bristol City Council helped to fund this project and we would like to say thanks to them too.
We’re going to send out our book to lots of people to show them what the studio is all about. When the copies for sending out have gone, the book will also be for sale. You can buy a copy of this unique limited edition art book at www.room13scotland.com
