Metal meetings, dinners and future garden project

  October 2010

What a wonderful idea about the Garden on the Edge Hill Station!
Jenny Porter decided to make garden between two platforms on the station. I don’t know will be allowed by Railway administration to do something there but if so it will be amazing and special place!



Metal is the place when I do my volunteering work and art society communication expirience.
It is great to meet people and talk about art and society!

Metal was founded by Jude Kelly OBE in 2002 and was created as an artistic laboratory to champion the need for continual investment in artistic investigation and the development of innovative ideas that could shift the thinking in the UK cultural sector.

We provide innovative, multi-disciplinary residency space for artists from the UK and overseas in Liverpool and Southend on Sea.  

Alongside providing space for artists and thinkers to develop their ideas and further the philosophy of their work, we are interested in how this artistic process, and the practice of artists can input into, and potentially influence political and social issues of the day.

Through our artistic programme we draw out evidence and ideas for a better understanding of the artist’s role in civic life, and ensure that these are shared with a wide and diverse set of partners. 

These ideas are showcased and disseminated on a regular basis through residencies, exhibitions, events, performance, discussion and publications.
