Night of the Fellows 2024

Each year Spike Island offers fellowships to promising artists based in Bristol. Artists are selected from an open call and offered studio space at Spike Island, access to our facilities, support from our programme team and free membership to Spike Island Associates for the year. This opportunity aims to support and encourage artists in Bristol as they develop their professional practices.

We are excited to introduce our Graduate Fellows for 2024–25: Alice Farrington (UWE Bristol), Amy Coaten (UWE Bristol), Hannah Hornby (UWE Bristol) and Libby Bove (Bath Spa University). They are joined by the 2024–25 Dreamtime Fellow, Alexis Over Papatzaneteas. The Dreamtime Fellowship is a programme funded and supported by established Bristol-based artist Luke Jerram.

This event sees our new Fellows introduce themselves and their practices, alongside our outgoing Graduate Fellows 2023–24: Lolly Deazley (UWE Bristol), Harry Judge (UWE Bristol), Max Silliton (UWE Bristol) and Lola Bennett (Bath Spa University), as well as Lou Baker, the 2023–24 Dreamtime Fellow. They share the work they have produced during their Fellowship at Spike Island as well as their aspirations for the future.

Join us for drinks and networking with the Spike Island community to wish best of luck to our outgoing and incoming Fellows.
