Transport
To the best of our knowledge, there are no planned disruptions to local transport on the date of the event.
Our nearest train station – Aldgate East Underground (1 min) is not wheelchair accessible. The closest wheelchair accessible stations are Whitechapel (15 min), Shoreditch High Street (15 min) or Liverpool Street (15 min).
Free parking for Blue Badge holders is available at the top of Osborn Street in the pay and display booths for an unlimited period. Spaces are available on a first come, first served basis.
Aged 15 – 24? Interested in art, meeting new people and getting involved in creative projects? We’re looking for new members to join our youth collective Duchamp & Sons.
Duchamp & Sons is a collective of young people from across East London who collaborate on creative projects with artists. They experiment with art, share space for food and conversation, and create exhibitions, events, and new artworks as a collective.
Complete the application form by 10am, Mon 21 September.
Eligible applicants will be invited to the Taster Evening on Wed 30 September, 5pm-7pm.
At the Taster Evening you can discover what the youth collective has to offer through a workshop with current members.
As spaces in the group are often oversubscribed, we also use these evenings to help us select who will be offered a place to join the group.*
We encourage you to complete the application form as early as possible, as spaces on the Taster Evening will be allocated throughout the application period.
*Please note that there are a limited number of spaces available in the collective, and so we are unlikely to be able to offer everyone who attends the Taster Evening a place in Duchamp & Sons.
In this instance we will prioritise those aged 15-19, based in East London (in particular those from Tower Hamlets), from backgrounds underrepresented in the arts, and with least prior access to similar opportunities.
Duchamp & Sons is a collective of young people from across East London who meet regularly at the gallery and collaborate on creative projects with artists. They experiment with art, share space for food and conversation, and create exhibitions, events, and new artworks as a collective.
Founded in 2010, the name Duchamp & Sons was chosen by the group as part of one of their first ever projects.
