PROJECT ART WORKS

Ignition residency

Project Art Works take over the Foreshore Gallery for a collaborative residency to recover and reconnect as we emerge from a year of fragmentation and isolation.

Whilst Hastings Contemporary remains closed to the public, from 22 March to 2 May 2021 the Project Art Works collective of neurodiverse artists is holding workshops and collaborations in this beautiful gallery beside the sea.

Public events, film screenings and installations will be visible through the window at Hastings Contemporary and online.
