Jake Xerxes Fussell is a singer, guitarist, and composer based in Durham, NC. His intuitivecreative process often draws from traditional music and archival field recordings-incorporating elements of songs from the past into new work. He is, according toAnnPowers of NPR, "maybe the leading interpreter of American folk music right now..." Fussell’s albumWhen I’m Calledwas released to critical acclaim by Fat Possum Records inthe summer of 2024. The album was produced by James Elkington and featuresBlake Mills(guitars), Ben Whiteley (bass), and Joe Westerlund (drums), along with additional vocalsfrom Joan Shelley and Robin Holcomb. His most recent recording “Close My Eyes” (a song by the late Americancomposer/cellist/singer Arthur Russell) was released in March of 2025 as a digital single. Fussell and Elkington also wrote and recorded the music forRebuilding, a new feature filmdirected by Max Walker-Silverman that premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival. “Fussell’s music often comes with complex citations; he is a folksinger in the truest sense,collecting ideas and melodies and lyrics from distant and disparate traditions, looking for thethings that unite us in our humanity.”-The New Yorker “(Fussell) is one of the great magpies ofAmerican song, collecting forgotten, tarnishedgems with a folklorist’s zeal... his renditions aren’t so much cover versions ascomposites...”–The Guardian Information Source: The Fleece Bristol | eventbrite

Islands. Life on the edge of existence, walled in by the ocean, crucibles of humankind where nature still holds the reins. I’m fascinated by them and had the privilege to work as a vet for many years on four of the British South Atlantic Islands: the Falklands, Ascension, Tristan da Cunha and St Helena. Richly diverse, far-flung remnants of Empire. Each has its own utterly unique story to tell, moulded by history, topography, peoples and climate. The Falklands: a grand archipelago down in the chilly waters near the Antarctic convergence, with rich fisheries, abundant wildlife, and more sheep than the eye can muster. Ascension: an equatorial military base once nicknamed ‘The Cinder’ because of its brutish volcanic landscapes, home to colourful land crabs, and nesting sea turtles, but with a lush central peak, the first example of terraforming. Tristan: the remotest island settlement in the world, a crofting-type community of some 250 hardy souls perched on the brim of a recently active volcano, their livelihoods dependent on harvesting the abundant crayfish that swarm in the kelp forests. And tropical St Helena: the former darling of the East India Company, once the most impregnably fortified place in the world and crammed with built heritage, dramatic scenery and endemic species. Not to forget the oldest known living land animal in the world, Jono the Giant Tortoise, who is approaching his third century. My talk will be a colourful picture fest of land and sea to convey these stories, laced with anecdotes about my great love, the animals. To me, they represent the best of us: innocent and honest, they never lie, they never deceive. I aim to entertain and uplift, to whizz you through these remote communities and provide the ultimate in armchair travelling so… fit that safety harness and buckle up!

Please join us for the launch of Resistant Forms , a fully illustrated monograph celebrating the first major survey exhibition of Donald Locke (1930–2010). The launch event will feature a panel discussion with artist Dr Hew Locke OBE RA and art historian Giulia Smith. The conversation will be chaired by exhibition curator and Gasworks Director, Robert Leckie, and will be followed by a Q&A with the audience. Resistant Forms is published on the occasion of Donald Locke’s first major survey exhibition organised by Spike Island, Bristol; Ikon Gallery, Birmingham; and Camden Art Centre, London. Charting the development of his work across Guyana, the UK and the United States over five decades, from the mid-1960s to the late 2000s, this richly illustrated volume offers an in-depth exploration of Locke’s expansive practice. Gathering newly commissioned essays by curator Grace Aneiza Ali, artist Eddie Chambers and art historian Giulia Smith alongside an extended introduction by Robert Leckie, Resistant Forms features full-colour plates of the artist’s work, rarely seen material from the artist’s archive and a comprehensive timeline. The book has been designed by London-based studio Wolfe Hall. The exhibition is generously supported by the Ampersand Foundation, Henry Moore Foundation, the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, Alison Jacques Gallery and the Estate of Donald Locke. The publication has been made possible with the generous support from Henry Moore Foundation and the Paul Mellon Centre. ROBERT LECKIE Robert Leckie is Director of Gasworks in London.

They turn everything up to ear shattering volume in a destructive crusade to wage war against the over hyped pretty boys and hipsters polluting metal. You don't like ASOMVEL? Well fuck you. And fuck all your family and friends as well. You may hate them, but they hate you more! Open up and say arrgghhhhhh!!! Barely a year after ASOMVEL released their well-respected debut LP, Kamikaze, the band was shaken to its core when front-man, Jay-Jay Winter, was killed in a road accident.

Since releasing World Shaker, the first album with Jay-Jay’s nephew, Ralph, on vocals, the band has performed around the world; including a tour of South America, Japan, and all around Europe. These dates included many well-respected festivals and lengthy tours with well-established artists. ASOMVEL released their definitive album, ‘ Born to Rock ‘n’ Roll’ on March 29th 2024, following a year of tremendous growth with their music reaching new fans around the world, due to their incredible social media presence. The new album will be followed by extensive touring, bringing their electrifying stage show to an army of hungry fans!” The group’s prior records consist of Kamikaze (2009), Knuckle Duster (2013), the Full Moon Dog EP (2014) and World Shaker (2019) Information Source: The Fleece Bristol | eventbrite

Welcome to Spark's tailored workshop that shows you exactly what AI means for your creative business, how to embrace it in the design process, and practical advice on how to move forwards. When we talk to creative businesses, we often find that while they know AI is going to change our industry, they are not clear on what the impact is likely to be, how they can embrace AI themselves, and how they can get started on the AI journey. Many creatives feel overwhelmed by AI, worry it will undermine their creativity, and are unsure how to integrate it into their creative processes without losing the human touch that defines their work. What you will learn This workshop from Jules Love ( Spark AI ) demystifies AI, and gives you straight forward, practical advice on how to get started. It covers: · What really is Generative AI, and why do you need to embrace it to compete? · What are the big creative agencies using Generative AI for, and where is this all going? · What are some of the tools out there for text, images and video? · How can you get the best out of ChatGPT and Midjourney for creative tasks? · How do you embed AI-augmentation throughout the creative workflow? · How is this going to change the industry, and what can we do to remain competitive? · What are the risks around data privacy and IP? · How do you get started operationalising it in your team? This four-hour session turns pessimism about the future with AI into optimism and enthusiasm to get started, with a practical path forwards. Who is this workshop for? This workshop is ideal for agency leaders, creative teams and freelancers at the early stages of AI adoption. It’s perfect for those just exploring the possibilities of AI, and those looking to move from experimenting with it to truly operationalising it. Where is it? Join us in person at Origin Workspace in Bristol for an afternoon filled with insightful talks, hands-on practice, and networking opportunities. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to learn, connect, and be inspired! Information Source: Bristol Creative Industries | eventbrite

Nothing beats a home-cooked meal shared with family! And this is what inspires our Family Style Cookery Classes , a fun, laid-back homestyle cooking experience. Here, you will learn to prepare different dishes and then enjoy them with people who, like you, fuel our mission of supporting refugee and migrant chefs on their journey to integration. It’s a cookery class with a conscience, like they say! Your class will be led by our wonderful Chef Halise from Turkey at Coexist Community Kitchen in Bristol . At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Chef Halise as the head of the family! She will take care of dividing the class into groups, and each group will be responsible for creating one of the dishes. Of course, you are welcome and encouraged to move around during the class to learn about the other dishes being prepared. Throughout the evening, Chef Halise will share stories about their food and culture, and explain how to prepare each of the dishes so you come away with some new cooking tricks and inspiration from Turkey. You will also be emailed the recipes after the class.

I am from eastern Turkey, although at university I met people from other regions and learnt about various different cultures and recipes. I grew up in a big city with my three big sisters who were already helping my mum in the kitchen. I was always asking ‘Please can I help?’ By the time I got to university I had learned how to cook just by watching! In the summer I loved going to stay with my mum’s family, who lived in a village. They grew and cooked their own vegetables. There I had my Grandma all to myself and learned to make yoghurt and cheese, which I still make for my own family. Big meals at home with family and friends were an important part of our lives. We had to be strong to manage the huge pots we used. Our food traditions are very varied with lots of different recipes for meat and vegetables.” We’re excited to have you in the class!
