We've Hit Our Target — Let’s Go Further Together!
We did it! Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve hit our £25,000 Kickstarter funding goal with 10 days still to go.
This means POST is happening — the doors will open, the studios will be built, and our new artist-led hub is becoming a reality. We're so grateful to every one of you who has backed, shared, or cheered us on.
However, given the obvious need for the kind of facilities we plan to offer, we’ve decided to stretch our funding goals.
🚀Introducing Our Stretch Goals:
If we hit £30k we will upgrade the spec of the space including improved gallery lighting, cameras for our community workshops, and a flexible AV set-up for screenings and public events. It will also enable us to utilise biophlic design principles to create a more welcoming workspace for everyone.
If we hit £35k we will create the POST Residency Fund which will subsidise a residency in Year 1 for an underrepresented or low-income artist, to include a desk space, access to facilities and an exhibition at the end of their residency.
What You Can Do
We’ve already come so far — with your help, we can unlock this next step:
//// Spread the word
//// Pledge if you’re able
//// Tell a friend who might want to join our community
And don’t worry — we’ve already secured the core funding. This stretch goal is an exciting bonus. If we don’t reach it, we still go ahead. But if we do? We’ll be able to offer even more support, more access, and more impact.
So please consider pledging if you haven’t already.
Through the genoristy of fellow artists like Finn Hopson and Laura El-Tantaway, we’ve got some wonderful prints available to pledge on, with more being donated every day. New works recently added include a fantastic piece by Magnum photographer Mark Power and an iconic photograph of Gilbert & George by Michael James O’Brien.
Check out the Kickstarter for these works and more.
Oh, and by the way, one lucky supporter, randomly selected at the end of the campaign, will receive a new copy of William Eggleston -The Outlands. (Retail price € 380.00)
A big thank you once again, Simon & Nina
