Friday 13 August, 6pm

This exhibition of small intimate artworks will bring together Tutti artists and members of PIRAT Press (an offshoot of Bittondi Printmakers Association) to respond to the power of nature to captivate the inquisitive mind, and to offer humour, inspiration and relief from the material world.
Now based at Tutti’s Visual Arts Studios in Brighton, professional printmakers from PIRAT (Printmakers In Residence At Tutti) are able to provide workshops in a range of printmaking techniques for self identified disabled artists wanting to expand their artistic practices into the field of printmaking.

From the players that brought you the consistently sold out show You’ve Got a Friend - Stories of Carole King’s Tapestry comes Linda Ronstadt - Hitmaker
In the 1970’s there was one woman with the Midas touch in music. The most versatile vocalist of the modern era she had a lot of friends like Jackson Browne, Emmylou Harris, David Geffen, Dolly Parton, Bonnie Raitt and a couple of session musicians who later became The Eagles.  All great artists who wrote a lot of great music. Linda Ronstadt spun their tunes into gold. She made them hits.  
Linda said, “I don’t write ‘em, I just pick ‘em but they have to be about me….”
Performing songs like You’re No Good, Blue Bayou, Poor Poor Pitiful Me and When Will I Be Loved, this show is a vibrant celebration of magical music moments and collaboration. Just the way all hits should be.  
The band are Victoria Traeger- piano & vocals, Joanne Hall - cowbell & vocals, Mae Napier-Traeger – violin & vocals, Bruno Tarraran- guitar & vocals, Gage Stead- bass guitar & vocals, Steve Todd- drums & percussion and Paul Cooper – pedal steel.
