The workshop days are full
Every day of the pilot edition is now spoken for: eleven artists, and two days the residency keeps for itself. The evenings are a different story, and that is what this page is asking for.

One long table, every night.
This August, the Art Space Hotel opens its doors as a place to make and perform together. Each day belongs to an artist and their workshop, and each evening everyone comes back to one long table to eat. Those evenings are what we are still looking for people to fill.
Live music, song, theatre, spoken word, a set under the trees as the light goes. Something to play while people eat, or something everyone stops and turns their chairs around for. Both work, and we would rather hear what you actually do than tell you what to bring.
The last evening, 27 August, is the Open House, when the doors open to the village and the fortnight's work goes up on the walls. It is the biggest audience of the two weeks, and it is one of the evenings you can ask for.
What it holds
An evening, and something that lasts
More than a single set, a way to be heard, and to leave a mark on a space that keeps growing.
An evening of your own
One evening, yours to shape. Music, song, theatre, spoken word, whatever you actually do. Something to play under while people eat, or something they turn their chairs around for. Tell us which and we will build the evening around it.
A room that is already warm
Your audience has spent the whole day making something with their hands, and they come to the table open, tired in a good way, and glad to be there. It is a kinder room to play to than any bar.
The Online Gallery
Your work and your evening become part of the Art Space story, shown online and beyond August.

Applications
Tell us what you would play
A few lines is plenty to begin, and a link to something we can listen to is even better. The workshop days are full, so this is for the evenings. We'll read every application personally and reach out to talk it through.
