Owen Davies is an artist who plays a huge part in the creative scene of Rochester, Kent. Creatabot asked Owen some questions to find out more about him and what inspires him.
In the 16th century your average town saw a huge change, during the reformation many churches closed and this saw them taken over and changed into alternative venues including theatres and printeries. Today we see a new movement of empty buildings, and it’s not due to the recession, it is just the future.
Tuttle 101 will be at 12:30 – 2:30pm Monday 28th February inside the former Westminster Bank at 161 High Street Rochester (Kent, ME1 1EH).
Inspired by years of conversation and months of collaboration, a team of 101 advocates are now inspired towards an exciting coworking space opportunity. This month you’re invited to participate in a vision, fueled by coffee and inspiration, you are welcomed to explore a rather special 161 High Street space in central Rochester.
Please do come along, we really want to hear what you think! What should we create for you?
Tuttle will run for a fixed period between 12:30-2:30pm because of other activities happening in the venue on the day, but please do check the limited availability for an opportunity to extend your exploration into the later afternoon and evening.
