1. The Biscuit Factory
13th May Friday Only
Open: 7-11pm
From the studio to the stage, join The Biscuit Factory for an evening of cultural happenings.
See part of the gallery transformed into an art studio, where you are invited to join
artist Megan Randall to mould and shape ceramic forms, which in their hundreds will come together as one installation to mark The Biscuit Factory’s 20th anniversary year.
Get involved in an experiment in making urban venues friendlier on your brain - a project designed by spatial thinker Helena Seget. Dance like no-one is watching at the Silent Book disco with a thematically curated playlist from Forum Books, and tour the gallery to uncover flash-mob Shakespeare with actors bursting into short performances within the crowd, courtesy of People’s Theatre.
End your evening on the roof terrace for food and cocktails beneath festoon lights.
Show Times: 7-11pm
