Creative Lab 2.0
Workshops
Developed by Kakilang, Creative Lab offers a series of exciting workshops for emerging artists to discover new ways to create and remix their practice, exploring innovative approaches across performance, music, visual art, and technology.
After a successful 2022 run, Kakilang is thrilled to present Creative Lab 2.0 in collaboration with Rich Mix, London!
Led by industry professionals, these workshops welcome all artists from all backgrounds and heritages, and highly encourage artists with East and South East Asian heritage to participate.
You can participate in any number of the 8 workshops running from February to April 2024. We then offer the opportunity to use Rich Mix’s spaces to create solo or group work to be showcased in a May scratch performance for family and friends.
To join, secure an all-access pass for £10 here, granting entry to the entire programme.
Kakilang will be offering 3 x £200 artists bursaries for anyone who feels that the support will help them participate in the Creative Lab programme.
To apply, please complete this form by Wednesday 31st January.
Kakilang are also looking for 1 x Artist Liaison who will receive a stipend of £600 to liaise between the artists and Kakilang during the development period, where participants have the opportunity to use Rich Mix's spaces across 5 days in May to create scratch solo or group work. Participants can then present this work in a private sharing event on Saturday 25th May 2024 at Rich Mix.
