*Boatelier*

*Saturday 16th October - Thursday 21st October 2010*

*Rochdale Canal, Calder Valley, West Yorkshire, UK*

As part of Over Yonder in collaboration with East Street Arts' Social Club 2010, Contents May Vary have produced *Boatelier* which uses the alternative, ready-made exhibition and performance space of a narrow boat navigating the Rochdale Canal for the location of an exhibition of three event-based works. Each artist has produced a participatory event for *Boatelier* which takes the idea of connecting the twinned locations of the Aire and Calder Valley in West Yorkshire, England and the Ruhr Valley in Germany and explores the social, historical and political similarities and differences.

From the 16th to the 21st of October, Contents May Vary will moor at advertised locations where they will present their event based works. Throughout each event they will collect artefacts which will be added to a collection on board the boat, accumulating throughout their journey.

Artists In Residence will join the Boatelier crew and present additional exhibits that will form part of the Boatelier collection: Micheal Burkitt, Edwyn Butler, Helen Collett, Myles Donaldson, Johanna Goetze, Chris Hurford, James Moffat, Kerry Morrison, Janie Nicoll, Rosanne Robertson and Gabriel Stones.
