About this Event
Join us for our second artist brunch of the year! Our artist brunches are an opportunity to get feedback on your work, while digesting food and ideas in a supportive environment.
Our co-director Rosie Crane Eckmire will be joined by Lina Ivanova who will curate a brunch menu. This will be shared a week before the event. You’re also welcome to bring your own snacks, tea and coffee will be provided and dietary needs accommodated.
Sessions will include guided conversation, an opportunity to get to know one another, as well as time to share your work. Participants will only be able to show work once per year. To ensure dietary needs are accommodated there will be no drop-in spaces available. If you need support with signing up, please get in touch or drop-by Turf and we can book you in!
Spots will be limited to 8 bookable spaces per session, with 3 artists sharing work.
This event is expanding on At The Meadow's Edge, Turf's summer programme taking place across green spaces in Croydon.

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.
