Day off

April 4th

Had nothing planned for Tipp, so took a day off. At home I wrote to the Principal of Silvermines National School and proposed working with the children. Phoned all of the press and radio stations to find out if they would carry public notice about my search for Stuffed Animals. Proposed ad as follows;

Do you have a stuffed animal? Or know the whereabouts of one? Fiona Woods is Visual Artist in Residence for North Tipperary; she is conducting an audit of all the stuffed animals in the county for a photographic art project and she would like to hear from you. Please email fiwoods@eircom.net

Tipperary Star; two column ad, 1” costs 63 euro (plus vat I think).
Nenagh Guardian suggested I contact the editor and ask him to take it as a feature (which to their credit they did!) Tipp Midwest Radio included it free in their noticeboard, twice a day for one week. Tipp FM didn’t call me back, but the ad was quite cheap.
