SUMMARY:Reel to Real: Still Pushing Pinapples
DESCRIPTION:This month at Reel to Real\, entertainment\, working class culture\, human connection\, the power of pop and the state of Britain align in a funny\, irreverent road movie that follows an ageing pop star as he chases one more chart success. \n\n\n\nAbout the Film \n\n\n\nWhat happens when you’ve created the worst hit song ever – at least according to the music press? What comes after fleeting fame\, and what does it mean to grow old still chasing a dream? \n\n\n\nKim Hopkins’ moving and funny follow up to her documentary A BUNCH OF AMATEURS features former pop star Dene Michael as he clings to the remnants of fame he once had as a member of 1980s novelty pop group Black Lace. \n\n\n\nThe band’s universally known hit Agadoo – both beloved and hated by many\, and the high or low point of any party – is what Dene’s best known for. Now\, performing for a dwindling\, ageing audience in some of the UK’s most deprived seaside towns and cities\, he’s eager to press on with his music career and get out from under the legacy of the Black Lace songbook. \n\n\n\nSTILL PUSHING PINEAPPLES follows Dene\, his spirited 89-year-old mum Anne\, and his sassy girlfriend Hayley across Britain and the Costa del Sol in this unmistakably British road movie. \n\n\n\nFilm Trailer \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Reel to Real Cinema \n\n\n\nReel to Real Cinema is a monthly film space in the Stove Café\, featuring an eclectic mixture of conversational films – from artist made shorts to feature length documentaries\, locally made to international cinema. A space for discussion and thought-provoking films\, you are welcome to join us after the film for a short discussion about the themes from this month’s selection. The Stove Café will be open from 5.30pm – 6:45pm with a pre-film dinner option alongside hot drinks and cakes.

SUMMARY:Print House: Open Day
DESCRIPTION:PRINT HOUSE — LAUNCH DAY \n\n\n\nWe’re opening the doors to the Print House – a new space for making\, experimenting\, and getting ideas out in the world.Join us for a full day of hands-on workshops to kick things off. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIntroduction to Risograph10:30am – 1:30pmA hands-on introduction to risograph printing.A process that sits somewhere between photocopier and screenprint\, known for its bold colours\, textured layers\, and unpredictable charm.In this 3-hour session\, you’ll learn the basics: how to prepare artwork\, build layers\, and print your own two-colour design. You’ll leave with your own prints and a solid grounding in the process.Whether it’s your first time or you’re brushing up your skills\, this is a chance to get stuck in\, try things out\, and see what happens. Expect good tunes\, good chat\, and a drink to mark the launch. \n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDumfries Poster Workshop2:30pm – 5:30pmAn open\, creative making space for anyone with something to say – whether it’s a wedding\, a gig\, a cause\, or just something that deserves to be out there.Taking cues from the spirit of the Camden Poster Workshop\, this session is about using print as a tool to share ideas\, promote something\, or just experiment with new forms. \n\n\n\nWork with collage\, illustration\, and bold graphic approaches to design and produce your own poster. Whether you’re promoting a gig\, testing an idea\, or just playing around\, you’ll be supported by two facilitators to bring something to life.No experience needed. No pressure to get it “right.” And no AI!Come for a session or stay for the day \n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nImportant Info:– Spaces are limited and offered on a first-come\, first-served basis– Age restriction: 16+– If you sign up but can no longer attend\, please let us know ASAP so we can offer your space to someone else. \n\n\n\nWhat is risograph printing? \n\n\n\nRisograph (or ‘riso’) is a gloriously unpredictable print process that sits somewhere between screen printing and photocopying. It uses bright soy-based inks and a stencil-based method to produce bold\, textured\, layered prints with a beautifully handmade feel.Each colour is printed one or two layers at a time – meaning happy accidents\, weird overlaps\, and slight misregistrations are all part of the charm. It’s fast\, affordable\, eco-conscious\, and ideal for posters\, zines\, flyers\, art prints\, comics\, and more.Riso is loved for its vibrant colours that can’t be replicated through digital means\, low-fi textures\, and its power to turn the ordinary into something full of life and energy. It’s a bit like magic – but with rollers and drums
