and the Deputy Town Clerk reported that the take up period was very short and the need to source £3,000 funding for the owl would have been difficult in the time frame. The Art Space tent at the Keynsham Music Festival did not do as well as in 2017 and takings were down by about 50%. Arts activities in the run up to Winter. Currently, In Bloom have a Scarecrow Trail in Keynsham and trail maps are available from the Town Council office at a price of 20 pence. Thanks also were given to In Bloom for all the lovely bottle top artwork displayed in the Town Centre. A cascade of knitted and crocheted poppies is currently under construction and will be displayed from one of the smaller towers of St. John’s Church. Also, Jo Bird, events co-ordinator is producing some poppy panels for the Chocolate Quarter. The Art Space Group are currently discussing installation of a community fridge project in the old toilet block on Ashton Way. There is talk of this becoming a venue. 15.
