SUMMARY:Art Exhibition – Ian Murphy: The Light Within
DESCRIPTION:Artist Ian Murphy travels internationally  with his sketchbook\, capturing the essence of places he discovers – places that exude the qualities of neglect and abandonment – in a way that shows the ‘beauty in imperfections.’ His paintings not only embody the history of the site but also symbolise the importance of how people exist within their communities. \nThe presence of a hidden light source is an important ingredient which gently manipulates the audience into wanting to ‘walk in’ to the painting\, trying to follow an enticing journey through to the inner courtyard or through a partially obscured passageway. This  exhibition will show recent work from visits to Venice and Asia\, which will be for sale. \nArtist talk Sunday 11th January at 2pm. The exhibition is open  Sundays to Fridays 10am to 4pm. Admission is free.

SUMMARY:Top Gs Like Me
DESCRIPTION:A new comedy\, set in Northampton\, about growing up online. \nTransforming the Derngate auditorium into a skatepark\, this Made In Northampton production dives headfirst into the influence of online culture\, the pull of toxic masculinity\, and the search for identity in the digital age. \nAidan’s lost.

Meanwhile\, he’s stacking shelves at the supermarket wondering if this is all he’s cut out for.

SUMMARY:In Conversation with Paul Morley: Far Above the World: The Time and Space of David Bowie
DESCRIPTION:Renowned music biographer and journalist\, Paul Morley joins us in conversation about his latest book – ‘Far Above the World: The Time and Space of David Bowie’ – a landmark exploration of David Bowie as an everlasting cultural force and changemaker. \nIn the ten years since the death of David Bowie in 2016 there has been no loss of interest in and fascination with his life\, music and driven\, complex personality. He is definitely one musician\, one performer\, destined not to be forgotten. The significant grief and sadness that greeted Bowie’s death has evolved into a deeper\, enduring love for his music\, style\, wit\, artistic curiosity\, sexual energy\, flamboyant outsider spirit and insatiable\, provocative appetite for life. \nFar Above the World documents one of the UK’s greatest creative artists\, through the spectacularly colourful and vibrant journey of a man who constantly reinvented himself and his music. Bowie lived in the future\, using the pop song to chronicle overwhelming and dangerous times\, searching for the light\, and creating a communication channel between post-war 20th century times and where(ever) we are now. This anniversary book will place him in the now and next\, as much as is past\, and argue that his songs\, and his messages\, reflections and warnings become ever more relevant and compelling as time passes. \nThe evening will feature an interview with Paul by Festival Curator\, Karen Rust\, an audience Q&A and a book signing afterwards. It’s part of the Oundle Festival of Literature. \nTickets are £12.50

SUMMARY:Alpaca Walk at Hideaway Farm
DESCRIPTION:A unique opportunity to meet our walking boys up close before heading out on a beautiful walk with your own alpaca through our newly planted woodland with stunning views across the countryside. \nOur boys love getting out of their paddock to meet new people\, explore the land and find all the best forage and it’s good for us too. The benefits of spending time in nature are well known and combining that with a walk and getting to know and spend time with your own alpaca is a real boost for our wellbeing. \n\nOn arrival we’ll introduce you to our herd (each with their own unique personality!) and share some information about alpacas and how we take care of them.​ We’ll also share some health and safety guidance and tips on handling and leading respectfully. \nWe will then match you to the most suitable alpaca for you and after a brief introduction to your alpaca in terms of name\, personality and particular quirks\, we’ll be off! \nWe’ll take them on a walk around our 28 acres of land exploring tracks that meander through our newly planted woodlands and around the open wetlands. \nWe’ll then head down to The Hideout to wash our hands and use facilities before heading off.
