Event
: TMT had a lovely day when OMSK - the London based film collective
came to do their show at the Cube. We had a symposium in the
outside sunshine about the United State of Independent Cinema
and talked about the joys and hardships of being a DIY collective.
The OMSK show in the evening was brilliant - they had a live
compere who did a strange and dangerous dance, an ironing performance
artist who wore big bunny ears and they showed loads of OMSK
films - including one about a boy who knitted the ocean and
another about a girl who made things happen with the power of
her mind.
Event
: TMT held a jumble sale where we raised some money for The
Bristolian. Kayle and Mel laid the clothes and things over the
cinema seats in the Cube auditorium and people weaved thier
way along and around - it was like an arty labrinthian treasure
hunt.
Event : On Saturday 14th December 2002, Too Many Things went
on a day trip to a gallery in Wellington Street, Bristol and
attended a showing of The Bristol Art Library. There was a huge
beautiful cake made in honour of Thomas Chatterton and The Smallest
Art Library in the world. The head Librarian of The Bristol
Art Library was a very nice lady although she was quite strict
and made sure you kept the rules. We also had mince pies and
mulled wine to sell along with the (un)usual TooManyThings.

Event : A huge TMT jumble mountain was torn down by hordes of
crazed jumblers on 18th January 2003. So many people and so
many things. Click here to see.
It was even better than the first Jumble and the proceeds went
to LadyFest Bristol . Kayle, Lucy and Mel are expert jumble
sale coordinators now.
Event : 12th July 2003 - A Fate Worse
than Asda: The most successful and enjoyable TooManyThings
event so far. Set in the glorious Cube gardens in the baking
sun, a plethora of groups and independent artists came together
to sell, socialise and (involuntarily) sunbathe. The Fate Worse
than Asda featured a stall by Comic Kweens (selling comics and
merchandise for the then forthcoming LadyFest Bristol), Phlem
Fashion sold customised and handmade fashions of extraordanairy
quality and style, Naomi McCauley marked the Orange Parades
in Northern Ireland with organic vegetable jewelry in orange
and green and a woman called Agnes sold facial expressions at
a fairly reasonable rate. There were also many more stalls -
a full list will arrive here soon
