OUGD602: Goat Updates / March 2016

A few updates for Goat Collective at the moment;

- Disposable Society
The exhibition went really well and we got a great turn out. A few people we spoke to turned up purely down to the guerrilla advertising we did on disposed of materials around Hyde Park, which was good to hear. Although stressful at times and fairly expensive, the event was a success and we can't wait to get started on the next one.

- NURAG clothing launch
An event we collaborated in on the 10th March was the launch of clothing collection by Joe from Nurag. He asked us at Goat to collaborate in the event by doing some live art pieces, while our photographer, Karl and filmmaker, Rees, recorded the event.

- Made in Leeds TV interview
Ahead of the Nurag event, a few members of Goat were interviewed by Made in Leeds and appeared on the show on Friday night. The clip is available to view online.

- Monthly HPBC exhibits
We're still adding new artwork to Hyde Park Book Club every month, and putting on a get together on the 'launch' of new work for a couple of hours on the Sunday of each month. This is something we need to embrace and capitalise on more over the next few months, as we have spoken to owner Jack about putting on a 'Goat fest' style larger event in June once we have finished the academic year.

- Social Media
We've had several mentions by well known companies and businesses over the past month, partly promoting Disposable Society. Naturally our reputation will build online as we gain more recognition.
