Join us on Thursday 30 October, 7-9pm, for Get a Room – a Metal Social offering space for creatives to gather, connect, and collaborate. During the evening you’ll share ideas, plan projects, and meet like-minded people – all in the welcoming environment of Metal’s home in Southend, Chalkwell Hall.

This Metal Social will be hosted by local artist Alfie Winters, founder of the one-hour residency at Chalkwell Hall.

Expect:

• a warm welcome
• opportunities for connection
• creative conversation
• a tombola of art-making prompts
• fun resources and games including ‘Artist’s Truth or Dare’.

Host Alfie Winters is a visual artist and educator from Essex, working from Studio 12, Leigh-on-Sea. His work explores performance, process, and archive, applying these to create lo-fi autonomy. With a photography background, his lens-based work questions and documents practice-based research in artistic spaces.
