Art

Spit & Sawdust has a creative programme which includes exhibitions, residencies, a large scale Billboard in our yard and numerous events including screenings, performances and workshops. Our upper floor houses artist studios dedicated to experimental practice. Our art programme takes place throughout the space and we enjoy giving artists free reign to make work in and around the daily buzz of the building. We sometimes do projects and events off-site, collaborating with others. Everyone is welcome when we host an event as part of our creative programme - we often close the kitchen and serve free food cooked from our outside pizza oven and fire pit too. Information on our current and past programme is below.

ART NUGGETS OPEN CALL

We are hosting our first ever Open Exhibition.

It’s free to enter and everyone is welcome to participate. The only rule is that your artwork should be tiny, the size of a nugget, of the chicken or cauliflower variety.

It can be any medium. Painting, drawing, sculpture or photography are easy to imagine small, but you could also submit video work using a QR code, or sound using a mini speaker. We are open to everything!

All artworks submitted will be exhibited (as long as they aren’t offensive!!).

And if you don’t want to enter but would like to take part in choosing the prize winners then come on down to our birthday event on 13th April and vote for your favourite pieces. First prize wins a £50 Spit & Sawdust voucher, second prize a Spit & Sawdust Tee, and third prize a free skate or burger.

Fill out the form below to let us know you are entering, then drop your artwork off to us (anytime during opening hours) by 10th April, making sure it’s labelled with your name.

Submission deadline 7th April.
