The NEOS week at Mill Farm has been amazing. We welcomed our 1000th visitor at 2pm on Sunday .. closing the day with 1,132 visitors. A wonderful array of people come in and talked about their NEOS experiences, how many shows they'd seen with so man
y (and so varied) artists, makers and galleries in the North-east of Scotland.
Many first time visitors came out to NEOS venues – it is brilliant to see that more people are hearing about it - after 6 years, it's grown in strength to strength and is still growing.
NEOS spreads by word of mouth and the network of artists and makers involved promoting and raising awareness - so thank you to everyone who has helped raise awareness and make this NEOS a wonderful platform to promote everyone involved.
The public have also fed back their gratitude to the quality and welcoming nature of the NEOS venues. It's thrilling to know that "the public" are now seeing that the North-east of Scotland has so many professional and engaging arts practitioners.
At the end of day ten, we had approximately 1200+ visitors at Mill Farm.
We hope that you all have had a wonderful NEOS experience for 2009.
Yours etc
Susie Hunt.
