David Parr House
Trustee5' Annual Report Icontinuedl
Yearended 31 March 2023
Letterfrom the Chair
We are all immensely proud that we are regularly welcoming the public to the David Parr House for
visits, workshops, exhibitions and events. The shadow of Covid still occasionally creeps up behind
us but the future is looking bright. It is now time for us to look towards creating the unique position
that the David Parr House can play in the cultural landscape of Cambridge and beyond.
I feel that this 15 the start of its next Stage of development, the chrysalis was secured and now the
butterfy is ready to emerge. It took io years to reach thi5 point and I would just like to give a
'Thank you, to all who helped and still help us to become what we are. It has taken many people
with many skills and many roles- professionals and volunteersi grant givers and philanthropists,
regulars and occasionals, family and friends- they all had and have a place in securing our future.
As we move to that future we Say goodbye to Charlotte Woodley, Pilgrim Trust Curator, who
Steered the house through the rough sea5 of Covid with hard work and creativity. Her last
exhibition wa5 the fascinating story of the Newton School of Metalwork. It was wonderful to see
the beautiful Newton School pieces displayed together for the first time and to have hanging above
them a photo showing the faces of the village labourers who produced them. It conveyed to us how
important it is that everyone should have the opportunity to be taught a craft or art and how
enriching, both personally and materially, it can be- an important value that the David Parr House
hold5 Within it5 walls. David Parr wa5 taught the ski115 of the Decorative ArtlSt allowing him to not
only escape the poverty of hi5 childhood but also gave him the means to provide a Secure and
beautiful home when he had a family of his own. We also say goodbye to Jane Friend, Fundraising
Manager, who helped us to gain the grants and gifts that have been so necessary to bring us to the
position we are in today.
We say goodbye to them both with a heartfelt Ihank you, and warmly welcome Annabelle
Campbell, Director and Holly O'Brien, Digital and Events Content Producer. To be able to appoint a
'Director' reflects the important next stage that the house is embarking on, allowing us to think
carefully about its future direction, as well as enriching and growing the day to day. Annabelle
comes with a background that is perfect for the David Parr House, one which encompasses the
rigor of historical analysis of the home, the study of museums and curation, the creativity of craft
and the understanding of management. She has already embarked on forming this future by
creating opportunities for the house to work with artlSts and makers, celebrating the joy from
collective creativity, creating opportunities for new skills to be learnt, generating new income
streams and expanding our audience reach.
With the appointment of Holly and the continued support of Helen Entwistle, our House and
Volunteer Manager, the David Parr House ha5 a small but enthusiastic and dynamic team to drive
us forward. They are supported by the ever-growing number of volunteers who allow us to do all
that we do-thank you.
But growth must be mindful and meaningful, and we are conscious of making sure that our
development over the next few years is based on firm foundations. The butteTfiy must emerge
carefully, test out its wings, allow them to settle before finally taking flight. We look forward to the
flight but will enjoy the process of emerging and hope that you do too.

Director's Report
This year saw the launch of an artist-led workshop programme.The programme had a number of
objectives-.
Create opportunitie5 for artist and makers to work with the organi5ation, profile their work
to a new audience, and share their 5ki11s and knowledge.
Foreground the skill and expertise present in making.
Celebrate the joy of collective creativity.
Create opportunities for participants to learn new skills, enhance existing skills through
working with trained professional artists and makers.
Develop audiences.
Generate income.
Attract new audiences and repeat visitors.
Reinforce the values contemporary and enduring relevance of the values promoted in the
David Parr House and its stories.
During this reporting period there David Parr House has hosted 13 workshops, working with 6
artists to 144 participants.
We want to develop an accessible programme of creative participatory workshops, bringing the
community together through a series of contemporaryi high qualityi hands-on and artist-led
experiences. The preserved house of a working-class skilled artisan, provides a unique context to
present a programme of creative workshops that explore, celebrate and Share a range of diverse
range of arts and crafts skills.
Prices have varied from £40 to £95, and the workshops have njn over full days or half days.
The early workshops were scheduled during both weekdays- when the house was closed to the
public, and Saturdays, when house tours also run.
The constraints of the space were in fact not a barrier, as with David Parr House presenting the
creative potential within a domestic space, the content and scale of the workshops are aimed to
empower all participants to continue the practice at home.
Feedback on the schedule informed the decision to run the majority of workshops on Saturdays to
ensure they could be access by those with weekday commitments.
However, the content and target audiences for some workshop events, along with calendar dates
(such a5 Christmas and Traditional Patchworking techniques) were programmed on weekdays.
Case Study-. Art of Embroidery with Richard Mcvetis
March 2023 Saw the first workshop with London based artist Richard McVet15 delivered to a
capacity group of participants.
Richard's work uses hand stitch and embroider to consider the passing of time, and slow
contemplative process of making. All values promoted by the work of David Parr in 186
Gwydir Street.

The workshop represented a shift in profile and
price point for the workshop programme, having a
higher ticket price. David Parr House is committed
to paying all artists appropriately for their time and
work, which is reflected in the cost to attendees.
The workshop sold out and the feedback was
positive.
The workshop was for all levels of hand
embroiderers. and was devised to inspire
moments of mindfulness and conditions for creativity, to pause, think, and re-energise.

Achievements
During the financial year 2022-2023 the organisation has both maintained and built on the critical
success achieved during 2021-2022 which sawthe organisation successfully itself and build upon all
that had been achieved during the disrupted Covid-19 year5.
Covid has continued to have an impact with vi51tors cancelling bookings and requesting refunds or
rescheduling due to positive test results. There has been some, not substantial impact with guides
testing positive, though this has been an extremely low number, and all remain in good health.
Challenge5 to VlSltor numbers during this period have also included the economic downturn and
strikes on railways.
The digital offer is now very much embedded within the house offer alongside the physical
experience and this hybrid model of reaching out to audiences will continue.
During this period, the formal guide led digital tours have been paused, with the online digital
platform remaining available, and some bespoke online tours booked I this does still remain part of
the bespoke tour offer).
The focus has shifted back to physical and in-person onsite offer.
Our values of commitment to excellence and innovation were central to all we do, along with the
belief that every visitor should be given a meaningful and personal experience relating to the House.
It IS the house values that are central to the context and rationale for all we do.
For this year many new activities have been trialled and explored. The move is towards establishing
a seasonal series of event5 and activities that grow and expand the audience, generate income and
diversify audience5 and encourage repeat and return visitor5.

Exhibitions and Events=
The first exhibition was staged during the early summer. Newton School of Metalwork was a
partnership with Dave Marshall, Hammer and Hand Antiques.
Displayed in the Visitor Centre, the exhibition was open every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from
2nd June to 30th July. Free entry but timed ticket5 were required.
The story ofthe Newton School of Metalwork
is one that is local to David Parr House, ties in
with the Arts and Crafts production of the
time, and was little known. began at the peak
ofthe Arts & Crafts Movement as one of
numerous classes under the umbrella of the
Home Arts and Industries Association
IH.A.l.Al but it was one of only a small
number of these to become both a thriving
metal working school and successful village
industry that operated for over half a century.
The exhibition explored the foundations of
this local School, the designers who contributed their expertise and the workers who skilfully
executed their designs.
Income was received via a % fee in all works sold. The exhibition, apart from loans from private
collections, was a selling show.
The associated events programme included a copper repousse workshop led by artist Rebecca
Stark, and online talks with Arts & Crafts specialists- Fiona Rose, Patrick Bernbaum and Dave
Marshall.
Sales during the exhibition.. £6,485.00 earning David Parr House £1,297.00 in commission (20%).

Workshops
Artist-led workshops.. we now run a successful schedule of artist led workshops focussed on
a range of craft skills. The artlsts include both Cambridge-based and those from further
afield and run on Saturdays.
We received fiJnds to develop a series of artist-led workshops for adults with visual
impairment. For this we enlisted artists Stepanka Facerova and Mansi Shouche to lead the
session5. All were free to attend, and brought together adults, and support carers together
for the activities. This built on the existing relationship with Camsight Cambridge.
Commercial
New onslte retail offer- The displays on the ground floor of the Visitor Centre have been
reconfigured to create zoned areas for archive and retail.
We commissioned London based designer maker Michael Marriott to make new exclusively
designed shelves for the retail area.
We are working with artists, designers and businesses that align with the values of David
Parr House to develop stock list with strong identity and excusive collaborative products.
These include exclusive stationery, art prints and ceramics.

Yearended 31 March 2023
Since 2019 a shop area has featured on the David Parr House website. The stock was
reviewed with many items that were not performing, withdrawn and sold off, and new
ranges launched- including accounts with relevant small business suppliers such as
Cambridge Imprint and Art Angels Publishing. Alongside this we have worked closely with
selected artists, designers and makers to develop new ranges and expand the items
stocked.
The online shop interface has been refined and refreshed making it visually simpler and to
aid navigation.
Research and collection..
David Parr House has been gifted a collection of a series of iron patarae moulds from the FR
Leach workshop in City Road, Cambridge dating from later 188os to 19005. The donation
was from Emma Lister, granddaughter to Harold Lister who was based in the workshops.
The moulds were accompanied by some varied archive materials including a
clientlcustomer book from Nora Leach, milliner, showing Mary Jane Parr as a customer.
Research continues around the David Parr and FR Leach archive materials, with academic

Volunteers:
The volunteer workforce continued to be a valued asset and crucial to the success of tour
programme. Helen Entwhistle, House Manager, recruited 2 new cohorts during this period, with 4
cohorts of trained guides working with us.
The more recent recruits vary in profile to the first cohort, being younger in age and based in other
parts of Cambridge, whereas the earlier groups were very local to the House.
A5 well as undertaking tours, volunteers also support the house by managing and caring for the
garden, and also form a Care & Conservation Team carry out conservation clean in the interior, and
physical monitoring for signs of change and infestation.
A pulse survey 15 sent out bi-monthly to keep in contact and monitor engagement with the
volunteers. A digital newsletter has been replaced by a weekly bulletin, and there are plans to
5UPPOrt the newsletter to grow into a volunteer managed project.
Christmas and Summer parties were held forthe Volunteer Workforce, along with a trip to the
Hemingford Grey home of Lucy Boston.
The experience and insight of the volunteer group is valued and is being consulted as part of the
current website development project. Reviews are also being undertaken of the training offered
