Katie Tomlinson - Bathers Bathing & 
Queer Painting: Intervals 

Saturday 20 June, 12–4pm
12 Claremont, Hastings

Join us for an afternoon celebrating the opening of two new exhibitions across 12 Claremont and the first six months of Amici Studio.

Spread across the Amici Studio space on the 3rd floor, the ground floor gallery at 12 Claremont (with thanks to Project Art Works), and weather permitting the ally and community garden behind the building, the event brings together exhibitions, conversation, food, music and our community.

The afternoon is intended as a celebration of collaboration, creative exchange and queer joy, reflecting many of the ideas and communities explored across both exhibitions.
