With less than two weeks to go until the opening of Street Fans, we wanted to tell you all about our upcoming partner events programme.

Over the past few weeks, our small exhibitions team (curator, Jacob Moss and assistant, Imy Clarke) have been especially busy preparing for the fast-approaching opening of Street Fans on the 19th September.

We are thrilled to announce that our first ever Art Happens crowdfunding campaign achieved its goal of raising £14,000.

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far. Our Art Happens crowdfunding campaign is now 91% funded!

A huge thank you to everyone who’s donated so far. With just ten days left to reach our target sum of £14,000, your support is more important than ever.

Earlier this year the little-known craft of fan making was included in the Radcliffe Red List of Endangered Craft, categorised as at serious risk of no longer being practised in the UK. Launching via Art Fund’s crowdfunding platform Art Happens, we are campaigning to raise £14,000 to help realise an innovative project which aims to reinvigorate this once thriving craft form.
