A sense of occasion : significant objects marking diverse contemporary occasions / a Craftspace Touring and mac collaborative exhibition.

"How can contemporary material culture most creatively define our sense of who we are in Britain at the start of the twenty first century? In our changing and diverse society, traditional objects may not always be available or appropriate for events we wish to mark or rituals we need to perform. At the start of a new millenium, it seems a fitting moment to present new works which express the multi-faceted nature of British cultural identities throught the theme of occasion."--From back cover.
