Making Together
Collaborations | Exhibition
Making Together is the result of a brand new collaboration between Art et al. X Royal Society of Sculptors, an innovative collaborative programme and inclusive exhibition featuring artists working from UK supported studios, alongside their artistic peers, members of the Royal Society of Sculptors.
The exhibition features the work created during two peer-to-peer collaborations. Thompson Hall, an artist with ActionSpace in London, has been working with Simone Kennedy MRSS while Leslie Thompson, an artist with Venture Arts in Manchester, has been collaborating with Eleni Maragaki MRSS. We are also pleased to say that Leslie will be live drawing at our private view.
The exhibition runs from 9 October to 24 November 2023
Monday to Friday from 11.00am - 5.00pm, plus Saturdays 12pm- 5pm in October only
Early/late relaxed openings
Designed for neurodivergent and autistic children and adults, and those who may face difficulties visiting at busier times: Monday 16 October 5-7pm, Saturday 28 October 9-11am, Tuesday 7 November 9-11am
