6 runners met at the Auger Collective space in the Sovereign Centre. It’s a former clothes shop that’s being turned into a community art space and our task was to paint the walls white. Amanda had all the tools we needed and after a couple of hours of painting and a quick tea break, we were done.

Roller painting to achieve clean lines in our modern contemporary gallery
We are a new community interest company called the Auger Collective. We have acquired a space (over 8,000 sq ft) that will be a modern contemporary showcase gallery. It requires a fair amount of manual labour - painting would be the main job. I have tea, coffee making facilities along with a fridge where I can provide regular cold drinks. We also have male & female lavatories along with a disabled loo too.
