<h3>**SEAS ARTS FESTIVAL WHAT&#8217;S ON PROGRAMME**</h3>
<p>SEAS is a touring International Arts Event, which has, during 2008 and 2009, visited nine coastal towns and cities around the Black and North seas. It reached Skegness on 25 September.</p>
<p>During 10 ten days over 100 events, performances and art installations will be staged, most of which are free to take part in. SEAS will depart on 4th October but its legacy – making people see Skegness in a different light, as somewhere with creativity and vibrancy, not just a traditional seaside town – will live on for years to come.</p>
<p>SEAS is the brainchild of Swedish arts organisation Intercult, which has pioneered the concept of using contemporary art as a regenerative force. As well as art installations, exhibitions, street theatre and performances, the SEAS programme includes a seminar, which brings together politicians, academics, artists and other community groups to discuss the challenges facing their town.</p>
<p>The SEAS Programme is exciting and challenging. It features 16 contemporary art works in performance, music, visual arts and digital media which have been commissioned by Intercult from leading European companies and artists.</p>
<p>A number of artisits and performers from across the UK will join the programme during SEAS visit to the UK, making the festival a truly unique event. Skegness is SEAS only UK destination.</p>
<p>East Lindsey District Council (ELDC), together with UK partners, Skegness Town Council, Lincolnshire County Council, University of Lincoln and Arts Council England, are delivering SEAS in partnership with Intercult.</p>
<p><strong>Think you know Skegness, SEAS will make you think again</strong></p>
<h3><img class="alignleft" title="SEAS International Arts Festival Skegness" src="http://skegness.wordpress.com/files/2009/08/seas_art_festival_skegness.gif" alt="" width="176" height="176" /></h3>
<h3>Exhilarating And Challenging European Arts Tour Reaches Its Final Destination – Skegness – On 25th September</h3>
<p>There is not long to go until a nine-day international arts spectacular, which has been on tour around Europe’s coastline for the last two years, reaches its final destination – Skegness.</p>
<p>The Black/North SEAS project opens in the UK on 25th September, bringing with it a core programme of 16 challenging, exciting, entertaining and thought-provoking events to one of the Britain’s most well known coastal resorts.</p>
<p>Artists, actors and performers from across Europe will descend on Skegness, the home of Butlins and the ‘Red Coats’ with the aim of entertaining people but also broadening their horizons, challenging their perceptions and beliefs and leaving a legacy which will help change the way people see Skegness for the better.</p>
<p>As well as the core programme of 16 acts, which include The Kiss and Waste Project looking at the personal stories of women across the Black and North Seas and Suitcases a theatrical exploration of Bulgaria’s communist past, over 30 artists from across the East Midlands will come together to make Black/North SEAS one of the most exciting, vibrant, diverse and stereotype-challenging events the UK has ever seen.</p>
<p>Black/North SEAS has been brought to life by Swedish arts organisation Intercult, with the help of funding from the European Union, and is coming to the UK thanks to East Lindsey District Council, Skegness Town Council, Lincolnshire County Council, the University of Lincoln and the Arts Council England.</p>
<p>“This project is one of the most exciting, challenging and thought provoking initiatives ever to be staged in the UK,” says Cllr Adam Grist Portfolio Holder for Leisure at East Lindsey District Council. “People from Turkey, Bulgaria, the Ukraine, Norway and Denmark have already hosted SEAS. All of them have been amazed by the spectacle. The local communities have thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment on offer, businesses have appreciated the influx of people from further afield and the discussion about the future of coastal resorts has given people a great deal of optimism. We hope that SEAS will bring the same wave of optimism to Skegness.”</p>
<p>Black/North SEAS set sail in 2008 and has visited Odessa, Istanbul, Mangalia and Varna on Europe’s Black Sea coastline and Helsingborg, Göteborg and Tromsø on the North Sea. Skegness was chosen as the tour’s final port of call due to the town’s similarities with the other locations.</p>
<p>“Skegness is one the United Kingdom’s most traditional and best loved resorts. It has such resonance and awareness, not only in Lincolnshire but the country as a whole,” says Adam Jeanes, SEAS Project Director. “The town has, like so many other places on the world’s coasts, suffered from local people leaving, a lack of investment by major employers, coastal erosion and other climate-related factors, but at its heart is still a vibrant, exciting and appealing place with a strong community spirit. By working with Arts Council England to bring SEAS to Skegness, we hope to challenge the way people see Skegness, attract visitors to the town and also leave a legacy by placing the future of coastal resorts on the national agenda.”</p>
<p>In addition to 16 touring events, the involvement of over 90 UK artists and many other events involving schools, colleges and local groups, the Black/North SEAS programme also features a two-day conference, SeaScape on 1st and 2nd October.</p>
<p>SeaScape will see over 100 MPs, planners, councillors, architects, artists and public sector officials focused on coastal regeneration schemes in the UK, funded through CABE’s Sea Change programme, and across the Black and North Seas coastal areas. Very different places with very similar issues, all seeking innovative ways to move forward and sell their unique position and strengths Many of the SEAS events will be free, performed in public spaces so that as many people as possible can see them. Some events, staged in licenced premises, will be ticketed, with prices ranging from £5 to £10.</p>
<p>A full programme and further information are available from www.skegnessinternational.com or 01507 601111.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>A 200-year-old Italian painting was rescued from the loft of an old disused chapel near Skegness in 1961 after an eighteen-month investigation.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter" title="famous_painting" src="http://skegness.wordpress.com/files/2009/08/famous_painting.gif" alt="famous_painting" width="500" height="394" /><br />
A casual remark in the street aroused the interest of local auctioneer and art-lover, Mr Hugh Anthony Gale. Mr Gale was told, three years previously, that there was some old paintings in the disused chapel, used as a furniture store in the 60s, on the marsh between Skegness and Burgh. Mildly interested, he went along to have a look. He found one of the pictures to be huge, in excess of 9 feet by 7 feet, covered in grime and dust and thick with cobwebs. Mr Gale gave the picture a gentle rub and saw what appeared to be the folds of a cloth or robe. He had the painting sent to his office in Lumley Road where it was carefully but non-expertly cleaned up a little bit more.<br />
The scene which unfolded caused great excitement &#8211; Christ sat at a table with two men, possibly disciples, and a young woman. &#8220;It was the tablecloth that caught my eye in the first place&#8221;, said Mr Gale. &#8220;It seemed to me that it was an early Italian painting, and at a wild guess, I concluded it could be of the school of Tiepolo.&#8221;</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5443" title="Giovanni_Battista_Tiepolo" src="http://skegness.wordpress.com/files/2009/08/giovanni_battista_tiepolo.gif" alt="Giovanni_Battista_Tiepolo" width="238" height="300" />Mr Gale then consulted an expert who confirmed the painting as the work of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1769) (left), an Italian religious painter influenced by Titian.</p>
<p>The next hurdle Mr Gale had to cross was tracking down the owner of the painting. He discovered that it had come from Sausthorpe Hall, Spilsby, which was owned by the Swan Family, who hadn&#8217;t lived in it since it was requisitioned by the Army in the Second World War. The contents of the Hall were apparently sold by auction in 1946. Mr Gale eventually made contact with a member of the Swan Family, Lt-Col C F T Swan who was living in Sussex at the time.</p>
<p>Lt-Col Swan revealed the history of the painting and how it had come into the hands of the Swan Family:</p>
<p>About 1765 the Rev Swan was Vicar at Sausthorpe and it was his custom to make &#8220;Grand Tours&#8221; of Europe with his family. They visited France, Germany and Italy, staying in a little village near Florence when a plague struck the village. Most travellers fled when they heard, but Rev Swan stayed to help. He held burial services for the dead, performed the last rites for the dying and used his acquired knowledge of medicine to help the less-seriously affected.<br />
When the crisis was over, the villagers wanted to present Rev Swan with a gift. They gave him one of their most valued possessions &#8211; the painting that hung in their little church. And that&#8217;s how the picture came to be at Sausthorpe Hall.</p>
<p>Mr Gale was anxious to confirm the authenticity of the painting and invited various experts to examine it. No one would actually commit themselves, but experts pointed out that the head of the disciple on the left was probably St Luke, based quite definitely on a Titian at the Louvre dealing with a similar subject. The biggest clue, according to Mr Gale, was to be found in the notes of John Kitto DD FSA to the illustrated New Testament published by Robert Fletcher in 1858. This contained an engraving after Guercino that is not dissimilar to the painting.</p>
<p>In the annotation is a reference to Emus (Emmaus) with verses on the subject by the old rhyming traveller in Purchas. All the things mentioned are in the picture &#8211; a church in the distance, Christ breaking bread, St Luke and Cleopas. The younger woman would be the daughter of Cleopas.</p>
<p>It was the wish of Lt-Col Swan that the picture would go to the church of St Nicholas in Lincoln.<br />
Mr Gale hoped to secure it for St Clement&#8217;s Church in Skegness, but it was decided that it would be too expensive to restore and anyway, there wasn&#8217;t enough room to display it properly in St Clement&#8217;s church.</p>
<p>The painting was eventually presented in 1961 to Rev W T Armstrong, vicar of St Nicholas Church and it was destined for the Lincoln School of Art.</p>
<p>So now we have the story of the Valuable Painting Rescued from Loft of Disused Chapel, pictured below.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9116" title="tozer_chapel-016" src="http://skegnessvideo.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/tozer_chapel-016.gif" alt="tozer_chapel-016" width="362" height="500" /></p>
<p>We are anxious to trace where the painting is today, and would be grateful for any further information.</p>
<p>We will be visiting the &#8220;old disused chapel&#8221; and Sausthorpe Hall shortly, when we will hopefully secure some pictures and maybe find some more clues&#8230;</p>

<h2>Skegness Writer&#8217;s First Novel</h2>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>Bill goes to X-tremes for release of horror novel</strong><br />
<img class="alignright alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1497" style="float:right;" title="book_launch_hussey_2" src="http://skegnessvideo.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/book_launch_hussey_2-150x150.gif" alt="Skegness horror fiction writer Bill Hussey Through a Glass, Darkly book launch" width="150" height="150" />A SPINE-CHILLING thriller set in the Lincolnshire Fens has been penned by a Skegness author. Through a Glass, Darkly is the first novel published by Bill Hussey (left), the son of a travelling showman who forged his roots in Skegness.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">The novel, described as skin-crawlingly terrifying, follows Det Insp Jack Trent who is having bad dreams. He has seen the murder of a child in a forest clearing at the hands of something indescribable. But, these are more than dreams, they are visions of the future that Jack has tried for years to suppress.<br />
Something happened to Jack in his childhood, something which means he cannot touch another living thing, something that killed his mother and has returned to inspire his visions. Now, in a race against time, Jack must make his stand and try to save the life of the boy from his dream.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Of his inspirations Bill explained: &#8220;I suppose the knack to tell a tall story was always in my blood.<br />
&#8220;My family have been showmen for generations. During the summer months, while my parents worked 15 hour days to keep the family afloat, I was entrusted to the care of my grandfathers.<br />
&#8220;My father&#8217;s father, a legend of the showman circuit and illiterate until the day he died, would make up stories to order, he was a strange engine of invention.<br />
&#8220;My mother&#8217;s father came alive through the reading of tales &#8211; he was Jack the Giant Killer and Sherlock Holmes and Magwitch.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Bill has just finished writing his second novel which will hopefully be published soon. Bill will be signing copies of the book in the marquee at Skegness Kite and Xfest on Saturday, July 12.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Through a Glass, Darkly was published by Bloody Books and can be bought for £7.99.</p>
<h3>Official Book Launch</h3>
<p style="text-align:left;">Bill delighted the many guests and supporters when he read an exerpt from his horror book during the official launch this evening at Churchill&#8217;s Pub in Skegness.
