Join us for this exhibition celebrating five artists based in Greater Manchester who have been involved with our Support Hub programme over the last six months.

Artists Ushiku Crisafulli, Kate Hughes and Cara Macwilliam were involved in our professional development sessions in-person at 53two, Barbara Hulme participated through our online programme, and Andrew Kuwornu was part of our mentoring programme.. These sessions were led by Manchester producer for the Support Hub, Jennifer Gilbert, aimed at supporting the artists to push their creative practice forward.

Each artist’s practice differs – from painting, drawing, mixed media, works that draw on emotional states and performance. Participating in these sessions has enabled the artists to come together to experience peer to peer learning, the sharing of ideas, professional growth, and most importantly for reciprocal support.

Launch event: Saturday 24th May, 2–4pm. Anybody is welcome to attend. Artist Ushiku will be doing a 10 minute performance at 2:45pm.

You can visit the exhibition from 10am – 7pm. The exhibition is open until 22 June 2025.
