Nourishment | Spring 2024

April – May 2024

Join us this Spring as Nourishment: a cyclical programme takes over Gallery One for a month – creating space for workshops, meals, events and film screenings. From broken global systems and climate breakdown to localised community responses and projects, this long-term cyclical programme delves into food justice, nourishment, growing and regenerative practices. Nourishment invites artists, activists, cooks, community organisers, gardeners, and local people to come together through a seasonal programme – creating space for imagining and implementing different food systems.

This season will range from getting to know the trees on our doorstep, to exploring food as medicine, to delving into the politics of extinction. There will be hands-on workshops, communal meals, and we’ll be hosting Luiza Prado’s project The Kitchen Network: the last reality tv food show on the planet.
