YOUTHLOT youth art cafe is a new project that Susan Hynes has set up in an empty shop in Newbury. The space will open this Saturday (26th) from 10am to 6pm, and it’s at 4-6 King’s Road West (round the corner from the King Charles Tavern). Please come along to see what’s happening, and bring your ideas for the space!
YOUTHLOT is a space for young people to drop in and use as they wish. There’s going to be:
-a gallery downstairs showing work from young and local artists
-a cafe with home-made cakes
-a chill-out space upstairs with space to hang out and listen to music
-a project space upstairs for workshops and activities
On Saturday Susan is inviting young people to come in and see the space to talk about what they want to do with it. We will also be making a zine-style newsletter written by and for young people. Come along, have a cuppa and tell us what activities you would like to see happening!
This blog will be updated with the latest information about what's going on - please use it as a space to suggest ideas.
Susan also really wants to hear from anyone who wants to use the space – artists, workshop leaders, music fans. If you have an idea or a project that you would like to see in the space please get in touch (contact@susanhynes.co.uk)!
Susan what a fantastic project!
ReplyDeleteI won't be able to make it but I hope you have a fabulous day with lots of interest.
