Dear Rebecca
Just a line to say thank you to you and your team for
arranging such an amazing arts exhibition in The
Mall, Its just such a great idea to fill plan empty
space with local works of art inspired by some of
Walthamstow's creative masterminds.
I see that The Mall is really trying to connect with
the local area with the installation of some famous
quotes from the likes of William Morris and is that
part of his print in the golden hanging ceiling piece?
This is our third time visiting The Mall Walthamstow
since the beginning of the arts and every time we
come to you we are amazed at how popular these
local associations are and seem to suit your
customers who like Walthamstow.
I look forward to see what's coming next
Many thanks Michele

Hi Rebecca,
I hope you are well.
I just wanted to drop you a note to say we really respect what you are trying
to achieve at The Mall and it is very clear you are really addressing the
connection between Walthamstow and its rich art’s history.
We particularly liked Holly’s piece inspired by the late great William Morris
and her clear understanding of his fabric prints was clear to all.
We look forward to seeing you in July for our summer workshops.
Thanks, Mhairi

Hi Rebecca
It was a great pleasure to be involved with The Mall Walthamstow's
InterpARTation project. Not only did I get to run a wonderful photographic
competition ( Hidden Gems) But I got to work along side 4 other talented local
artists and makers.
It is can be very easy to see a Shopping Centre as somewhere convenient to shop
with all our fav brands in one place. The Mall Walthamstow really pulled out all
the stops with excellent planning , good communication throughout the project
and all times the staff were pleasant ,professional and nothing was too much
trouble.
The project really showed that The Mall is so much more than a shopping
destination.
I look forward very much to being involve din other projects with The Mall.
