Art as a Social Service?

Thurs 11 November 7-9pm.

Refreshments provided. Friends Meeting House, Ship Street.

A discussion and networking event for artists with a socially-engaged practice, in partnership with Engage.

Producing work in and for the wider public realm places very different demands on artists than gallery or museum-based opportunities. Presentations by artist Matt Rowe, Teresa Cisneros-Ledda, Education Curator at Iniva and artist Jonathan Swain, act as a catalyst for
debate about the nature of these challenges, and their impact on an artist’s practice and professional profile. Chaired by artist, Susan Diab.

Artist’s Story – Lindsay Seers

Thurs 25 November 6.30-8pm.

Refreshments provided. Friends Meeting House, Ship Street.

strange transformations and draw inspiration from television and film biographies. Lindsay is Lecturer in Fine Art at Goldsmiths College. Her
talk will give an insight into how her practice has developed over the past 15 years.
