SPACE

We are delighted to present to you our new satellite project SPACE at Arts West Side (6 West Street, Old Market).

SPACE (Sound-Performance-Art-Community-Engagement)
we invite:
performance
exhibitions
events
pop ups
fashion
music
workshops

We have teamed up with Trinity Community Arts who have been running 6 West Street for nearly 5 years, under Bristol City Council's Community Asset Transfer initiative, with the aim to support the regeneration of Old Market.

After a successful run of community cafe projects in the space, Trinity received many wonderful proposals but were only able to select one. We are happy to announce that The Island submitted an innovative bid with a clear community engagement plan, which was close to Trinity's aim and objectives for 2016 and was selected to curate the project for the next coming months.

The Island’s main vision for SPACE (Sound-Performance-Art-Community-Engagement) is to create a welcoming and open hub for the local community, supporting creativity in Bristol by showcasing work and sharing ideas.

We will be curating a very exciting programme of monthly events, ranging from exhibitions, workshops, art & crafts pop-up shops, small theatre shows, fashion markets and so much more!

This exciting partnership will allow The Island and Trinity, both Key Arts Providers for the city, to expand their involvement with the local community and offer in the locality.
