Artists Feedback Session – Led by Jonny Kemp

Our free feedback sessions are a chance to get feedback on your work from a practicing artist in a supportive and friendly environment.

Taking place at the end of each month, our free feedback sessions are a chance to get feedback on your work from a practicing artist in a supportive and friendly environment. All kinds of creative work are welcome.

November’s feedback session will be led by Jonny Kemp

We are excited to host this workshop offsite at South Norwood Library as part of Hoagy Houghton’s ‘Desire Paths’ project ‘Portrait of a Brutalist Library’.

There are five slots available for showing work, but all are welcome to join in the discussion! Please arrive promptly to ensure your place.

WORKSHOP CODE:

Turf aims to be a space where all are welcomed & respected. We ask all attendees to align with this spirit when booking and support us in creating a welcoming & collaborative atmosphere together. We ask that everyone is;

  • Kind and respectful in our language and behaviour towards others. Turf is a space which is anti racism, sexism, homophobia and ableism.
  • Considerate of others’ time; allowing others room to speak & engage.
  • Respectful of the space itself as belonging to many people, treating the space & objects with care.
  • Attend wherever possible: In 2023, around 30% of people booking free tickets didn’t turn up! Our free tickets are limited and in high demand. Every person who doesn’t turn up means someone else can’t attend, so please let us know if you can’t make it to free up a space. If you don’t attend twice or more without letting us know, you may be restricted from booking again.
