Each month Appetite will feature a guest event from one of the other excellent arts organisations from Stoke-on-Trent. The first to feature in this new monthly spot is Airspace Gallery and their new exhibition Pigdog and Monkeyfestos!
PIGDOGANDMONKEYFESTOS is an exhibition curated by Shaun Doyle and Mally Mallinson, exploring contemporary artists’ manifestos and works inspired by the manifesto format. The exhibition includes the artists featured in the first two issues of Pigdogandmonkeyfestos the paper, plus guest artists invited to contribute to issue 3. Although PIGDOGANDMONKEYFESTOS is partly defined by the artists’ interpretation of what a manifesto is, should or could be, the exhibition as a whole is a celebration of difference and freedom rather than the endorsement of a single style or line of enquiry . Featuring over 50 nationally and internationally renowned artists, including Sarah Lucas, Billy Childish and Jessica Voorsanger, the exhibition is a chance to view diverse artistic thought in one eclectic gathering.
Alongside and running throughout the main exhibition, a series of workshops will be taking place at AirSpace and other venues in Stoke-on-Trent. The Cultural Sisters, a creative, visual and participatory arts organisation from Stoke-on-Trent, will deliver a series of scheduled, remote and open creative printmaking workshops. Inspired by the main exhibition, The Cultural Sisters will be working in the community with a diverse range of people to address the broad idea of the Mainifesto and the more personal and relevant respective concerns of the groups collaborated with. The prints made at each workshop will all go in to the PIGDOGANDMONKEYFESTOS Workshops Exhibition to be held in The Resource Room at AirSpace Gallery.

The Artist Soup Kitchen are talks and workshops to explore support networks, good practice and sustainability of the arts and artists in a changing climate. We have noticed that some of the best conversations happen over a good hearty meal and so over a delicious bowl of homemade soup, and specially baked bread, which is provided by B-arts, through their community bread-making project, Bread in Common, these sessions provide an opportunity to meet up in a relaxed and special environment, with a different theme and speaker each time. The Artist Soup Kitchen
Bread in Common Bread in Common is B arts bread project- artists and bakers using real bread to connect people and to nourish communities across North Staffordshire and beyond. In 2014 they will be opening a city centre bakery to support the work. Bread in Common
