Tomoko Takhashi exhibition opening with DJ NIKKI BEATNIK a huge success!

...and what a fantastic day it was! Approaching the De La Warr Pavilion in all its splendour on a sunny Saturday, it was a truely spine-tingling sight to see the sun terrace teeming with people enjoying DJ NIKKI BEATNIK's chilled-out tunes and heartily discussing Tomoko Takahashi's exhibition with broad smiles. People meandered round the Antony Gormley sculptures on the roof terrace and waved to friends and family dancing and chatting below. Others chilled out on deck chairs bathed in sunshine, a cold drink in hand. An inspiring exhibition celebrated in beautiful informal surroundings - a perfect summer day all in all.

"What a fantastic vibe this afternoon.....excellent to dance to the amazing tunes in the wonderful sunshine"

"What an amazing afternoon. Thank you to Tomoko, Nikki and the event organisers. Please do it again sometime!"

Pics of the event will be uploaded shortly. Please put up your pics too!
