About this Event
Art Press are excited to invite you to celebrate our new exhibition ‘NEWSFLASH’. The exhibition is all about having our voices heard, and we want to hear yours too. Through placard designing, badge making and collage, we’ll explore exciting ways to express our thoughts on our society as we know it. There’s also the unique opportunity to get a photo opp with our resident Dalek!
This is a relaxed, drop in style session where you can join in or leave at any time.
Refreshments will be provided - We look forward to seeing you!
ABOUT ART PRESS:
Art Press are Turf’s collective of young creatives (aged 25 and under) who work with Turf in monthly free workshops. Since 2017 young people that make up Art Press have designed their own programme by choosing which artists to meet, what processes to try, and how to showcase their work.
ABOUT TURF:
Founded in 2013 by Croydon locals, Turf is Croydon’s homegrown artist space and the first entirely artist-run contemporary art space in the borough. Based in Croydon’s Whitgift Shopping Centre, we put on free exhibitions 7 workshops, provide affordable artist studios, run a free creative project space for locals & host a number of other local creative organisations and collectives. A registered charity, Turf aims to provide paid opportunities for artists and creatives who might otherwise be undersupported.
A request from the Turf team - if you book, please turn up!
Around 30% of people booking free tickets don't attend. As a charity, we aim to support people who need creative opportunities the most and 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.

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.
