Events

SLAUGHTERHAUS runs a series of studio events throughout the year - including exhibitions, artists’ talks, film nights, open studio weekends and community workshops.

Our classes, exhibition programme and associated programme of talks and film nights in 2019 take the theme of Place as a starting point.

We have invited artists to exhibit this year who are exploring this theme, and will have a series of talks and events as part of this exhibition programme. Some of our courses will also encourage participants to explore this notion of place in their work.

Opening Event: Thursday 3 October 6.00- 9.00pm

Open Weekend: Saturday 5 & Sunday 6 October, 10.00-6.00pm

A series of demonstrations and talks accompany the exhibition:

Stone Lithography with Matt Young, Saturday 5 October, 1.00-3.00pm

Drypoint with Chris Christodoulou, Sunday 6 October, 2.00- 4.00pm

Exhibition continues until Friday 27 October

Opening times: Thursday & Friday 10 - 4pm

This etching, Barragán's Window, by Rose Electra Harris has been made exclusively for the exhibition. The print, available in an edition of 30, has been made with Rob White to launch our fundraising campaign.

 

All profits from sales of this print and all of the other prints by our members in the exhibition will be donated to the studio to support our ambitious plans for the next ten years!

  • To continue to support and facilitate artists to make prints.
  • To explore and push the boundaries of printmaking through innovative use of materials alongside traditional processes.
  • To commit to teaching, encouraging and sharing our love of printmaking through our programme of courses and events such as this Open Studio Weekend.
  • To continue to champion and support recent graduates through our SLAUGHTERHAUS Studio Membership prize- you can see work by the two new recipients of our prize this year in the exhibition.
  • To launch an outreach programme next year for young artists and 'would be' artists, to help them move into an art career.
  • To develop a print technician apprenticeship.
    •

    Our fundraising campaign will continue in the new year.
