Karimi uses a range of methods, including monotypes, wood- and linocuts and gouache; combined, they create a lively dialogue between the artist and his work. Landscapes and views are often merely hinted at – humans are the true heart of Karimi’s work, appearing as portraits, in classic poses, as lying and seated nudes, alone and in groups. The room around them is diffuse, sometimes suggested by a doorway flooded with light, other times by another person appearing at the edge of the picture. Two people face one another, rigid as statues, separated by a light expanse of color, of water? His figures seem delicate and brittle, as does the scenery they move within. They all portray small episodes within a unique moment – like the worm crawling towards the apple – that disappear almost before we have fully grasped their significance.

This masterclass will set you firmly on your way to being a crime writer. Your tutor – a former police chief superintendent and now crime writer – will guide you through the nature of the genre and its sub genre, understanding the world of crime, villainy and policing, then we will get on to the actual writing. We will work through how to develop gripping characters, settings, how to plot, write authentic dialogue, and craft twists, arcs and endings. Come prepared for a blistering day and armed with all the questions you’ve always wanted to ask someone who’s done it for real and now makes it up for fiction. The session will be run by Graham Bartlett. After thirty years of policing, whereby Graham Bartlett became Brighton and Hove police’s chief superintendent, a senior homicide detective and a public order and firearms commander, he is now a best-selling crime fiction and non-fiction author, and police and crime advisor. His debut non-fiction, Death Comes Knocking, written with Peter James, was a Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller, and Peter and Graham followed this up with the critically acclaimed Babes in the Wood. Since then, Graham has had three solo crime novels published; Bad for Good (Sunday Times Top Ten Best Seller, Winner of Crime Fiction Lover Editors’ Choice Award 2022 and Nominated for Specsavers Debut of the Year 2022), Force of Hate, and City on Fire. As a police procedure and crime advisor, Graham works with over 200 authors and TV writers (including Peter James, Elly Griffiths, Anthony Horowitz, Ruth Ware, Mark Billingham and the BBC), helping them inject authenticity into their work. The session will be held at the Jubilee Library in Brighton and will run from 11-5pm with an hour for lunch. The venue is fully accessible, near the train station and bus routes and with plenty of options for lunch (including bringing your own). The workshop is part of a series of one-day masterclasses held in the summer They are open to existing students on the Creative Writing Programme and other writers looking to improve specific areas of their writing craft.

Chris Carter will be joining us in May to celebrate the paperback release of 'The Death Watcher', the 13th adrenaline-packed Robert Hunter thriller. Chris Carter is coming to Brighton Waterstones to chat about his mega- selling Robert Hunter series and celebrate the paperback release of the intensely dark and chilling 'The Death Watcher'. When a routine autopsy on what looked like a straightforward hit-and-run leads the LA Chief Medical Examiner, Dr Carolyn Hove, to discover some puzzling inconsistencies, she calls in Detective Robert Hunter of the LAPD Ultra Violent Crimes Unit. Not only has Dr Hove discovered that the death wasn’t caused by a hit-and-run, but she has also found indications that the victim had been severely tortured prior to death. What no one realises is that what Dr Hove has stumbled upon is just the tip of the iceberg and it will lead Hunter and his partner, Carlos Garcia, on the trail of a twisted and clever killer who hides in plain sight. A serial killer no one even knew existed – a killer who has always operated under the radar, expertly disguising every gruesome murder as an accidental death. But how do you investigate a murder when you have no victims? How do you catch a killer who leaves behind no crime scene? How do you stop a ghost who no one can prove even exists? Book & ticket option includes a paperback copy of 'The Death Watcher' (rrp £9.99) available for collection on the night. Please be in touch on events@waterstones.com if you have any questions or requirements around accessibility. Information Source: Waterstones | eventbrite

Following a highly successful tour in 2024, Ballet Central returns in 2025 with a brand-new programme of classical ballet and contemporary dance. The repertoire includes Frederick Ashton’s miniature masterpiece Foyer de danse (1932) . Animating Edgar Degas’ iconic paintings and pastels of Paris Opera Ballet dancers, this will be the first staging of the ballet in over 90 years, following its recreation by Ursula Hageli for The Frederick Ashton Foundation. Principal Character Artist of The Royal Ballet, Kristen McNally, presents a vibrant modern ballet with a glorious new musical composition by Central’s Tabor Music Director, Philip Feeney. FEAST allows the audience to catch a glimpse of a colourful community where conversation is punctuated and interactions explode with character. In contrast, Ballet Central presents contemporary works by Dickson Mbi and Thick & Tight. Thick & Tight’s theatrical work Keeping Up with the Apocalypse will combine dance, theatre and mime. The piece is a meditation on greed, vanity and the absurdity of a species bringing about its own undoing . Dickson Mbi's work depicts the energetic ambition and perseverance required to pave new pathways in dance theatre and performance. Drawing from the Earth's vibrations and warmth, this piece explores the practices of ritual and shared human experience. Receive all Ballet Central announcements by subscribing to our newsletter .

The 'Domenica' Breakfast Work isn’t just a job – it’s belonging, confidence, independence. Yet, in England, just 4.7% of people with learning disabilities are in paid work. In Brighton, Team Domenica are changing that, helping young people find and maintain meaningful employment. This June, we’re heading to Plus X Innovation for a special Pop-up Breakfast with guest speaker Rosa Monckton MBE , Founder of Team Domenica. Rosa’s career spans leadership roles at some of the world’s biggest luxury brands. She was CEO of Tiffany & Co for 14 years, establishing their UK presence, before moving to Asprey & Garrard and later founding Team Domenica in 2016. Her daughter, Domenica, has Down’s Syndrome. After leaving college, Rosa saw first-hand how few support opportunities there were for people with learning disabilities and autism. Team Domenica was born to fill that gap, believing that everyone deserves the chance to aspire to a career and the independence and confidence that comes with it. Today, Team Domenica runs cafés across Brighton & Hove; they partner with over 60 local businesses and have just announced a brand-new site at Pavilion Gardens. Through their Supported Internship Programme, 80% of their young people have attained paid work, showing what’s possible with the right support. Join us on 10 June at Plus X Innovation for a taste of Café Domenica – and to hear Rosa’s story, from Breakfast at Tiffany’s to Breakfast at Domenica’s.

What role does the imagination play when we are writing about lived experience? If we agree that the life-writer’s task isn’t simply to record events but to write about them in a way that will engage our reader in character, setting and story, then we need to bring our imagination to the work. Evoking remembered people or conversations or happenings in a vivid way in our writing can feel conflicting for life-writers so during this masterclass (mistressclass!) we’ll discuss ethical considerations and through a combination of in-class writing exercises and the study of extracts from published texts, we’ll explore techniques to enable us to tell our stories creatively and with integrity. The session will be run by Hannah Vincent. Hannah is a novelist, short story writer and playwright. Her first novel, Alarm Girl was published in 2014 by Myriad Editions and her second, The Weaning was published in 2018 by Salt. Her short story collection She-Clown and Other Stories, published by Myriad in 2020, was shortlisted for the Edgehill Prize and the Manchester Fiction Prize. Her stage plays have been produced by among others, The Royal Court Theatre and The Royal National Theatre Studio and her radio play Come to Grief won a 2015 BBC Audio award. She has a PhD in creative and critical writing from the University of Sussex. The session will be held in the cosy surroundings of Kemptown Bookshop in Brighton and will run from 10-4pm with an hour for lunch. The venue is in the heart of Kemptown Village, on sveeral major bus routes and has plenty of options for lunch.

It pleases the Séance mightily to be hosting semi/modular psychonauts Teleplasmiste , the exploratory cosmic electronics project helmed by Mark O Pilkington ( Luminous Foundation , Strange Attractor Press ) and Michael J York ( Coil , Cyclobe , The Utopia Strong ) since 2015. ' Teleplasmiste’s cleverly layered soundscapes are deep and immersive. They plunge the listener through a psychic wall into what seems like infinite space.'

Tedium House https://bloodstereo.bandcamp.com/album/bicker-sweet Near-weekly Séance channelings have occurred variously via the Repeater Radio, Slack City and Radio Reverb motherships for 15 years. Born from a series of all-day musical pub sessions in the mid noughties and named after the 1964 Bryan Forbes film Séance on a Wet Afternoon, each show is a digressive wallow in the astral hinterlands of esoteric pop, buried soundtrack treasure, new and old electronic grot, folk musics psych and trad, freeform misshapes, arcane dub effluvium, modern composition, covetable new releases and whatever else happens to be punching their ticket at the time. When operating as a production unit The Séance has contributed tracks to A Year In The Country alongside remix work for various valued compadres. It will do some more of all this at some point once it pulls its finger out. Pete Wiggs is otherwise available as one third of Saint Etienne and Dem (aka James Papademetrie) isn't.

Proper Soul for the 21st Century - The Craig Charles House Party Show, BBC Radio 2 A great soul singer! - Tony Blackburn, BBC Radio London “Great songwriting and a beautiful voice” - Robert Elms - BBC Radio London “An artist on the rise... a considerable talent” - Blues & Soul Magazine Abi Farrell Live at The Folklore Rooms, Brighton Come and join soul vocalist and songwriter Abi Farrell and her acoustic band (Cy Atkinson; Keys, Alex Wiseman and Chloe Ravat; Backing Vocals) for her first ever headline show in Brighton at The Folklore Rooms. About Abi Farrell Abi Farrell was raised in rural Oxfordshire on a soundtrack of vocal powerhouses spanning the likes of Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Candi Staton and Carole King. Named 'an artist on the rise.. a considerable talent' by Blues and Soul Magazine, Abi is known for her effortlessly pure voice and lyrical dexterity, which is equally at home creating moving, introspective ballads as it is high-energy, empowering anthems. Lyrically, her music explores themes of identity, self-esteem, self-worth, empowerment, gender equality, mental health and social mobility. With an appeal that transcends generations, Abi's voice and songwriting explore the experience of navigating the world as a fiercely ambitious young woman from a working-class background. Abi's music has been consistently embraced by the UK & international soul scene since releasing a string of singles in collaboration with Big AC Records, including 'I Will See You Through', 'Empowered', 'Don't Follow Me' and 'Stepping Out Of Your Shadow', which were produced by Mitch Ayling of The Milk and pressed to limited edition 7 vinyl. Her releases have been championed by Craig Charles on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music, who praised Abi's writing 'proper soul for the 21st century'. 'Don't Follow Me', a social commentary on misogyny, was premiered by Robert Elms on BBC Radio London and subsequently led to Abi performing the track on BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends. Though Abi has been captivating live audiences since her teenage years, she has recently opened stages for Izo Fitzroy, Dee C Lee and Stone Foundation, has headlined the BBC Introducing stage at Oxfordshire's The Big Feastival, and has performed at venues such as Pizza Express Jazz Club, Pizza Express Live Holborn, The 100 Club, The Cavern Club Liverpool, Servant Jazz Quarters, Colours Hoxton, Oslo Hackney, and The Louisiana, Bristol. In addition to her own artistry, Abi has performed backing vocals for many of her peers: Nick Corbin, Emma Noble, Carmy Love, The Milk, PM Warson, Denver Cuss and James Bone, and continues to lend her voice to music she loves. This show will mark Abi's first ever headline show in Brighton. It will celebrate the arrival of her brand new single '47 Days' and further new music due to arrive this summer. About the Venue - The Folklore Rooms The Folklore Rooms is a place for music lovers and performers to unite in a space dedicated to their craft. Located in Central Brighton above The Quadrant Pub, this beautiful venue is perfect for intimate shows as well as full band shows.

Tales – folk, fairy and epic – have a timeless quality. They are islands of memory and insight if we give them time to talk to us. The first half of this masterclass will let us look at how memory works and the place of imagination; making meaning of myths. We will work with myths from selected cultures, about women and seasons. While myths are universal, what makes them distinctive and can we recall local ones? The second half of this masterclass is to engage in writing. We will work with metaphor and its power in creative writing with our unique imagination and signature. Please bring, wear or carry an object that is precious to you to the masterclass. The session will be run by Vayu Naidu. Vayu did her doctoral research on oral traditions and performance storytelling. Her fiction combines myths and epics and contemporary situations in a tapestry that unveils the human condition, our strength through our vulnerability. She is Professor of Practice at SOAS, Lecturer in Indian Theatre at RADA, and an RLF Fellow. She volunteers at Chelsea Physic Garden. The session will be held at the Jubilee Library in Brighton and will run from 10-4pm with an hour for lunch. The venue is fully accessible, near the train station and bus routes and with plenty of options for lunch (including bringing your own).

This masterclass will set you firmly on your way to being a crime writer. Your tutor – a former police chief superintendent and now crime writer – will guide you through the nature of the genre and its sub genre, understanding the world of crime, villainy and policing, then we will get on to the actual writing. We will work through how to develop gripping characters, settings, how to plot, write authentic dialogue, and craft twists, arcs and endings. Come prepared for a blistering day and armed with all the questions you’ve always wanted to ask someone who’s done it for real and now makes it up for fiction. The session will be run by Graham Bartlett. After thirty years of policing, whereby Graham Bartlett became Brighton and Hove police’s chief superintendent, a senior homicide detective and a public order and firearms commander, he is now a best-selling crime fiction and non-fiction author, and police and crime advisor. His debut non-fiction, Death Comes Knocking, written with Peter James, was a Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller, and Peter and Graham followed this up with the critically acclaimed Babes in the Wood. Since then, Graham has had three solo crime novels published; Bad for Good (Sunday Times Top Ten Best Seller, Winner of Crime Fiction Lover Editors’ Choice Award 2022 and Nominated for Specsavers Debut of the Year 2022), Force of Hate, and City on Fire. As a police procedure and crime advisor, Graham works with over 200 authors and TV writers (including Peter James, Elly Griffiths, Anthony Horowitz, Ruth Ware, Mark Billingham and the BBC), helping them inject authenticity into their work. The session will be held at the Jubilee Library in Brighton and will run from 11-5pm with an hour for lunch.

On June 15th at 6pm, we’re launching the bobu Safety Forum, and if you want to be part of shaping the future of safety this is where you need to be. This is not a “talk about safety” session. it’s a game changer. It’s where YOU get to drive the conversation that will shape the future of safety. Real safety? It’s inconvenient. It’s uncomfortable. But it’s necessary. The numbers speak for themselves: • Over 60% of hospitality workers have witnessed sexual harassment in the workplace—and most of it goes unreported. (HOSPA) • Venues and businesses in the UK lose £1.6 billion a year due to harassment and unsafe environments. (UK Gov) These aren't just statistics. This is the reality of our industry. The bob u Safety Forum is where businesses like yours will step up and lead the conversation. Real safety means doing the work. It means confronting uncomfortable truths. It means leading the way in making sure people are heard, seen and protected. What to expect at the bobu Safety Forum: Straight Talk, Not Small Talk We’re cutting through the noise. Expect raw, honest conversations about what’s really happening in venues and businesses right now—and what needs to change. No sugar-coating, no corporate fluff. Your Voice, Your Power This isn’t a panel where you sit quietly and listen. This is a forum, you’re part of the conversation . Share your experiences, challenges, and ideas. Be seen. Be heard. Building the Future Together We’re not here to hand you a manual. We’re here to build a new standard of safety with you. You’ll leave with ideas, momentum and a chance to shape how venues and businesses across the UK move forward. Connection Time Meet other businesses and venues who actually give a damn. Build your network with people who are done with ticking boxes and ready to do real work. Because safety isn’t just a conversation, it’s a revolution. Complimentary drinks and pizza sponsored by Eagle Labs Information Source: bobu | eventbrite
