A very strange and innovate performance art event will be taking place in Bristol shortly. For 24 days in late October and early November Temple Church (built by the Knights Templar and now a Grade II listed building) will be taken over by a rotating sequence of artists providing 522 hours of entertainment. The event is the brainchild of Theaster Gates, an artist from Chicago and is part of the Bristol 2015 European Green Capital celebrations. For details see here, and this Guardian preview.

Why am I telling you this? Because one of the performers taking part is me. I don’t know yet which day I will be on, or even if I’m allowed to tell you when I know, but I am listed on the website so I guess it is official.

That’s off the back of my being part of the 50 Voices for Malcolm X event earlier this year, so thanks again to Roger Griffith and the Ujima crew.
