'The Memory of Place' -
York Museums Trust is delighted to announce that The Memory of Place by
Keiko Mukaide will re-open for another season on 24 May, 2008.
The installation, which opened in 2007, is the latest commission to create
challenging contemporary work within this unique historic space and has
proved extremely popular with visitors.
In The Memory of Place, Keiko responds to her sense of the space,
and to the visual remains of the building’s former life, the stained glass,
grave covers and carvings.
Using fire, water, glass, stone and light, she transforms the interior
of the church, creating a spiritual space in which to reflect on the memory
of loved ones.
A pool of water fills the nave of the church. The water in the pool flows
towards the transept of the church, where a suspended column of glass
rods is dramatically top-lit, suggesting a spiritual path to a higher
place.
Visitors are invited to become involved with the installation by lighting
a votive candle and floating it on the pool - connecting our modern life
with that of our ancestors.
In the Japanese religious ceremony, Shoro nagashi, people release lanterns
onto a river in mid summer, symbolising their ancestors' spirits ascending
to heaven |

Monumental Landscape Tour - Spaces
must be booked in advance
Castle Howard is running a series of special tours for 2008, led by the
Curator, Dr Christopher Ridgway. These guided tours are an opportunity
to visit hidden features in Castle Howard and its grounds and learn about
their intriguing history in more detail.
The Monumental Landscape Tour will be taking place at 10.30 am. This circuit
walk visits the famous 18th-century monuments in the Castle Howard landscape
- the Gatehouse, the Pyramid, the Mausoleum, the Temple of the Four Winds
and the lost Temple of Venus. The dramatic interiors of some of these
buildings, which are not normally open to the public, include the gigantic
bust of Lord William Howard inside the Pyramid, and the chapel and vaults
in the Mausoleum. This unforgettable tour lasts approximately 3½ hours
and involves walking across some rough terrain.
Dr Ridgway has been Curator at Castle Howard for more than 20 years. He
has appeared on television, and lectured widely in the UK and overseas
on the history of Castle Howard, its architecture and landscape, on which
he has also published extensively |

Buddy - The Buddy Holly
Story
Nearly 50 years ago, the man who changed the face of popular music tragically
died in a plane crash aged just 22. Buddy tells the story of the three
years in which he became the world’s top recording artist with a show
that features over 20 of Buddy Holly’s greatest hits including “Peggy
Sue”, “That’ll be the Day”, “Oh Boy”, “Rave On”, “Heartbeat” and “Raining
in my Heart”.
The show follows the tragically short life of the star from his first
recording contract through his move to New York, concluding with his fatal
tour of Midwest America with Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper. Buddy
sings his way from the recording studio in Nashville, Tennessee to Harlem’s
Apollo Theatre, culminating in a live rock ‘n’ roll extravaganza at the
‘Winter Dance Party’ finale |

Keighley & Worth Valley Railway
- Guided Tours of the Railway - NEW FOR 2008
See behind the scenes - all those nooks and crannies, those locked sheds
and tantalising sidings that you can't quite see the end of. Now you can
find out what's going on, what is where, why it's in bits and what's happening?
Or simply have a decent afternoon out with someone who knows a fair bit
about the Railway and is happy to talk and answer questions?
You will travel in reserved accommodation on the Keighley & Worth
Valley Railway with a look behind the scenes at all locations on the line,
sheds, stations and offices. A buffet lunch will be included.
The itinerary will be: Assemble at Haworth station for a glimpse behind
the scenes in the Motive Power Depot before joining the 11.35 a.m. departure
to Oxenhope by diesel train. Here we leave the train for a look around
the Railway's superb carriage repair and storage facilities, before joining
the 12.45 p.m. steam train for a run to Ingrow via Keighley during which
a buffet lunch will be available.
We leave the train at Ingrow at 1.36 p.m. for a visit to the Carriage
and Locomotive museums at that site and a look around the sidings (did
you know that there's a crane tank in the undergrowth?). At 2.21 p.m.
we catch a train for the short trip to Oakworth, where we arrive at 2.30
and take a look behind the scenes at this world famous film location,
before joining the train again for Haworth at 3.12, concluding at Haworth
at 3.20 pm |

Farmers Market - The York Farmers
Market was one of the first to be established in the north of England
in the Autumn of 1999. The success as the forerunner to this movement
in the north has led to a large number of other markets opening and, more
importantly, created an alternative source of income to many farmers and
producers.
The main benefit of the farmers market here at Murton is that it is all
under cover come rain, snow or high wind with a large private car park
adjacent.
There is always seasonal activity and special events at the markets, adding
extra value and interest.
The main principle of the farmers market is that it is local producers
selling fresh quality produce direct to local consumers in an atmosphere
which promotes dialogue and understanding of food production including
environmental and welfare standards. This cuts down food miles and puts
money back into the local economy rather than imported goods.
The market always offers an extensive range of produce including:-
Meat – Yorkshire beef, lamb and pork; chicken, duck, geese, pheasant,
partridge, wild game (in season); wild boar; pies, sausages, burgers etc.
Vegetables – Fresh vegetables and salads (including organic growers);
exotic mushrooms; fresh fruit in season.
Bakery – Cakes, scones, quiches, puddings, fruit pies.
Other products – Yorkshire cheeses, home made soups, fruit wine, apple
juice, organic milk and butter.
A fantastic choice of fresh quality local produce at very competitive
prices and the benefit of knowing where it's come from and how it's been
produced |
