Nu-Urban Gardeners

ENDORSEMENTS

COMMENTS

I had the pleasure of working with the Nu Urban Gardeners in 2013, They were commission by Transported, a Creative People and Places Programme in Lincolnshire, to undertake a week long residency to engage new, hard to reach communities in the arts. The duo were truly a delight to work with. When devising their residency, they were efficient and thoughtful. They really took on board Transported's aims and ethos, which was reflected in the success of the project and the positivity it received from new audiences and participants. 
 
They were assertive in maximising the impact of the project. They engaged participants easily, with kindness and good humour. The project was creative, accessible and a great concept.  
 
I would highly recommend working with The Nu-Urban Gardeners and they would be a fantastic asset to any project or event.

A big thank you for all your work at the fete !  Feedback forms prove you are very popular!!
As ever, it’s a pleasure having you at these events. My lasting memory is the cow lying dead with a shovel sticking out its side…wonderful.

Jane Greenfield / Producer for HOME LIVE ART LTD / October 2011

Just a note to say we really enjoyed your Gothic Gardens event at Tattershall - it was great fun. I hope we come across you again at some point in the future - please do put me on your mailing list if you have one.

Hello It was an absolute pleasure meeting you both at the Alternative Fete and I am now a complete convert to the minature garden ;-) Loving the photos you have put up on your website. Keep it green Molly.
