July sees the first in our series of Open Table events. Open Tables are evenings of conversation responding to Castlefield Galley’s exhibition programme.

In partnership with Corridor8, the journal for contemporary art and writing in the North, we have launched a bursary for Castlefield Gallery Associate Members to respond to our exhibitions. Selected from an open call, Associate Member Bryony Dawson will develop a text based response to the current PIVOT exhibition alongside invited writer/curator Elysia Lukoszevieze.

The responses will be shared in an evening event that explores the themes, references and approaches to the works in the exhibition. Following the evening both responses will  be published in Corridor8, marking the start of a two year collaboration with the journal.
