Cancelling was a thing long before Social Media arrived.

My other Sunday routine is a leisurely cup of tea in bed, with something to read. When I’m between books, I often flick through old magazines, and this week it was a 2004 edition of Selvedge.

This piece jumped out at me:

Proof of why it’s worth revisiting old material. Between reads, you’ve changed, learned more, and so different things catch your eye.

You can find out more about what happened to this exhibition at the Palestine Costume Archive’s blog.

Apparently it wasn’t the only exhibition to get ‘lost’ in transit.

Seems like ‘cancelling’ was a thing long before social media arrived.
