ArtSlam Newcastle-under-Lyme

The image shows lots of people gathering round a table, looking at the art work on it and taking photographs. Most people have got coats and hats on and some have drinks in their hands. People are also standing in the background. The scene is inside a large room that is quite dark but with some purple and blue lighting.

Get ready for an evening of dynamic, live art created against the clock as beats drop. Watch masterpieces made in minutes and crown your champion!
