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.

Following a highly successful tour in 2024, Ballet Central returns in 2025 with a brand-new company of dancers and a revitalising programme of classical ballet and contemporary dance. Ballet Central is delighted to announce the first piece in the 2025 summer programme as Frederick Ashton’s majestic Foyer de Danse. Staged for the first time in over 90 years, the ballet brings Edgar Degas paintings to life and has been recreated by the Ashton Foundation.

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.

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. The space is equipped with top of the line sound & lighting equipment, cared for by a dedicated team of in-house engineers. At 60/70 capacity, TFR is a beautifully intimate and unique performance space which is home to monthly showcase nights, as well as wide range of shows and events. With an unbeatable atmosphere, great selection of craft beers on tap, and shows seven nights a week, The Folklore Rooms is Brighton's music venue that delivers much more than just the show. This is music - as it should be. Information Source: Abi Farrell | eventbrite

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.

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.

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.

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.
