Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Seven of the SPACE team are taking part in Run Hackney on 10th May to raise £3500 towards supporting recently graduated artists at a crucial time in the development of their practice.
Shortly after graduating, many artists have to put their practice on hold or abandon it all together due to the increasingly unsustainable costs of living and practicing in London. To ensure that the visual arts are diverse and open to all we want to provide a free studio for a recent graduate for a year. This will make cost less of a barrier to success and have enormous impact on the artist - recent bursary recipient, Jala Wahid, inaugural SPACE Patrons & Friends Bursary recipient sums it up:
"without this generous bursary opportunity my practice would be unsustainable ... with it I can afford to be more experimental and develop my practice"
