STUDIO 18
FRI 26TH Busk and Beyond
Studio 18 is hosting a night of music and artmaking on the 26th of November, starting at 6pm. This event will be unlike anything you have experienced before. Part gig, part open arts workshop, part poetry performance, plus whatever unscripted creative happenings take place on the night. You’ll hear music from the crazy punk bands Glitchers and Nice Indian Boys Don’t Play Punk. The music will run alongside the third Studio 18 Anarchy Arts workshop - where you are given the space and permission to let your inner creativity run wild. You’ll be encouraged to let loose and make a mess. Grab your creative weapon of choice and go for it. Everyone and anyone is welcome - no arts experience required. Studio 18 will roll out the canvas and provide the paint. You're advised to wear clothes that don't mind witnessing a paint fight... its about to get messy. Play, paint, punk....or not - if you'd rather just come along and be part of the crowd, enjoy observing the chaos that ensues around you and dance the night away, that's great as well! Come for the music. Come for the art. Come for the infamous Studio 18 fire pit. Featuring special performances from Jonny Fluffypunk and Bernard Beardsley. In association with Stroud Love Music Hate Racism. Entry by donation. 6pm
