Elephant Jam Sessions
Some beer and wine, a little low lighting, some kick-ass musicians playing an acoustic set. No rehearsals, no formality, and no pre-recorded audio tracks. Just a fun, friendly relaxed vibe in the heart of Elephant & Castle. What else could you want for a Sunday evening?
Musicians, participants and spectators are most welcome …And it’s free!
PLACE: Unit 12b, the Artworks Elephant
DATE: Sundays till mid-December 2014
TIME: 6pm—11pm
24-Hr Marathon Paint Fest!
First up, is our 24-hour non-stop painting fest called Sheep-Shaped Canvas — [fb]. The premise is simple; 4 artists, 3 walls, 2 studios, and 1 huge pot of coffee… or green tea, or both. Anyway, it should be fun, and if the artists survive, we’ll do it again, sooner, rather than later! We will also he hosting talks, screenings, exhibitions and showcases, so sign up to our mailing list as there are limited spaces for booking events.
Our growing Collective of artists is keen to maintain the momentum, so watch out for our next Negative Space venture at No. 11, The Artworks: Elephant.
ART 4 MACS!
The premise is that you bring your old Apple Mac (no more than 4 years old) and trade it for one of our exclusive and original Urban Art or Contemporary paintings (usually valued at over £1,000). We can’t say fairer than that!
Plus, unlike your old Mac, the artwork offered will increase in value over time, making it a sound investment.
Why are we doing it? Because; a) Art doesn’t always have to be traded for money b) Artists need Macs too, and c) Because we’re feeling generous at this time of year!
This is a legitimate offer!

Or just come on down this Fri 28 & Sat 29 November and satisfy your curiosity.
PLACE: Studio 19, the Artworks Elephant, Elephant Road, London SE17

Creative Events
Sew-Craft Workshop
This was one of our first events at the Artworks, a needle craft workshop that was organised by Danny and Olga, and run by Emma. Emma did a sterling job on the creative sewing front. Taking children that were under ten and teaching them the basics whilst getting them to use their imagination to create pictures and scenes that would have made fantastic illustrations for stories.
The workshop lasted all day as half of them were so engrossed in their pieces that they didn’t want to leave, showing that one-hour art lessons are no way near enough for growing creative minds! It’s also a testament to the enthusiasm and talent of Emma and her small team of arts workers on the day. Thank you all!
