Lily The Pink... Breast Cancer Awareness Event at Another Angle Studio
Niamh Freeman • October 6, 2021
Pink Out at Another Angle Studio
On Sunday October 3rd, Another Angle Studio had its very first major charity event promoting the Breast Cancer Now
organization as part of the #breastcancerawarenessmonth, which was hosted by our very own photographer Wendy Beckham.
Following the theme of pink everyone who attended wore clothing and accessories related to the colour and each spent ten minutes having their own wacky photoshoot along with tea and treats. Whether it was a man, woman, non-binary, child or pet, everyone was welcome to dress up and celebrate.
As stated before, October is breast cancer awareness month, encouraging everyone to regularly check for any lumps and/or bumps residing in the chest area of your body. According to the Breast Cancer Now website, this disease has affected around 55,000 of women and 370 men on a yearly basis worldwide, and almost 9/10 (85%) of women survive breast cancer for five years or more. It's a serious cause that sticks with you for life and may damage the way a person sees themselves, which is why we wanted to give those people an opportunity to help skyrocket their confidence once more, and to let them know that they are not alone.

We would like to personally thank Wendy and Adam for hosting the event and everyone who attended and donated towards the cause on that day, and hope you enjoyed yourselves to the fullest as we did, and also a big thank you to our little mascot puppy Lily for her stellar behaviour with the guests as well as her gorgeous photos.
If you are sad you missed out and are interested in having your own photoshoot done supporting the cause, don't worry. Following the success of the event we have decided to keep it running until October 31st as part of the Breast Cancer Awareness Month scheme. All you have to do is get in contact with Wendy Beckham and book a date and time with her, and we hope to see you soon!

The UK's most easterly gallery are proud to have been selected for Art Fair East
It's all seaside, ships and eventual sun for everyone at Another Angle Studio, as on Saturday the 11th we attended the Maritime Heritage Fair to celebrate the Excelsior's centenary! There we were able to sell prints, promote our arts and craft classes, and even made a few new friends along the way. The day was jam packed with mini adventures exploring the Excelsior and challenging the inevitable weather. All in which will be featured in this issue. Below are pictures and descriptions of our time at the Lowestoft Heritage Open Day event.
Coming up this September, we at Another Angle Studio are happy to announce our participation with Heritage Open Days , between the 10th to the 19th of September. Our studio and gallery will be open featuring our familiar exhibitors: Miriam King, Tim Fair (Oteo) together with our private collection of the works by the marvellous Suffolk artist John Reay (with two new acquisitions - South Beach and Punch and Judy). We will also have a fabulous new artist Gary Hogben (more on his work in our forthcoming blog post). As part of Heritage Open Days, we will be joining with the Excelsior Trust for the Lowestoft Maritime Heritage Event on Heritage Quay, Lowestoft and the Herring and Ale Fayre at the Oddfellows Arms in Lowestoft . The Excelsior Trust will be hosting the Maritime Heritage Fair on Saturday 11th Sept as part of their noble charitable advent to celebrate their long and fascinating history, as well as their centenary! The day will include being able to explore the Excelsior's entire deck from top to bottom, with music, food stalls, other independent creators and shops all celebrating one hundred years since the ships creation.
Welcome to the UK's most easterly creative studio and gallery
On Tuesday September 1st, we at Another Angle Studio hosted our very first crafting fair at the high street in Lowestoft town. Hosting goodies such as face masks, custom handmade dolls, accessories, crafting kits, bags, and more. Originally we had planned to set up the week before, but due to severe weather complications, we unfortunately had to reschedule. However, we had a splendid time and would like to thank everyone who came to visit us or made a purchase at the stall. It goes a long way to help us out! With this in mind, bearing the success of the market, we have decided to set up our very own crafting stall. Other than selling our own made products, our plan for this is to receive feedback from customers on what we do right, what we can improve on, and forums for if you would like to join our upcoming crafting clubs on weekday evenings. (Limited spaces due to COVID six people per-group rules). If you are passing through or in the area, feel free to come and say hello and take a look at our stock. We look forward to seeing you there!
We had a super special person to celebrate last weekend - gaining a First in Law at Kings College London! So, we presented her with our one-of-a-kind graduation keepsake. Excited with squeals of delight this handmade doll is a now a treasured possession and a reminder of their effort and our pride in their achievement. Huge congratulations to Katie Barton on her massive success throughout this troubling year! (A great collective special family gift; handmade with personalisation for thoughtful giving). WE ARE TAKING ORDERS - BESPOKE – Contact us with details for a discussion and quotation.
With the success of our previous appointment with Hudson and his two friends, the crafts department at Another Angle Studio have decided to open up our very own Teddy Bear Hospital. We'll happily take any type of stuffed animal at any size and make them good as new. Due to our new policy regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, we ask that you get in touch with us about any questions/concerns or book appointments with us via email, telephone, social media (Facebook, Instagram, etc).
