24 February: SHARING

Many artists at Islington Mill share space, making studio rental more affordable and leading to fantastic unexpected collaborations.

If you’re interested in having a space at any of the Islington Mill buildings and potentially sharing a studio but don’t know where to start, this event is for you.

You’ll hear from artists in existing studio shares before we move onto ice-breakers and ‘speed-friending’.

Tell us about yourself, your practice, your dream studio space  and let’s try to build some potential future studio alliances.

We are asking all attendees to register for a free place via Eventbrite if possible so please click this link to do that.
