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.

Everything Is Fine presents Melvins Formed in 1983 in Montesano, Washington, the Melvins are one of modern music’s most influential bands. Founded by Buzz Osborne (vocals/guitar) with drummer Dale Crover joining a year later, the Melvins pioneered a genre-defying fusion of punk rock and heavy music. Over their four-decade career, they’ve released more than 30 original albums, countless live records, and numerous singles and rarities. Recent works include Thunderball (2025), a collaboration with noise artists extraordinaire Void Manes and Ni Maitres, Tarantula Heart (2024), a dynamic showcase of the Melvins’ range​ where the songs were written after the recording), Bad Mood Rising (2022), an intense, sludge-infused exploration of their signature sound, and Five Legged Dog (2021), a 36-track acoustic retrospective that reimagines their heaviest songs alongside covers of favorite artists. Known for their relentless creativity and collaborations with friends like Jello Biafra, Mudhoney, and Fantômas, the Melvins have circled the globe many times over, bringing their brash and genre-busting sounds to audiences worldwide. Today’s Melvins’ lineup features Osborne, Crover, Steven McDonald (Redd Kross) and Coady Willis (High on Fire, Big Business). The band’s history includes a variety of unique configurations, from the Osborne-Crover duo with Big Business’ Jared Warren and Coady Willis to a four-piece featuring the current line-up plus Butthole Surfers’ Jeff Pinkus, as well as Melvins Lite (with Mr. Bungle’s Trevor Dunn), the Melvins have embraced evolution and their roots simultaneously. Sometimes, you might even get the Melvins opening for the Melvins.

Rainbows offers a safe and friendly environment, allowing these families to experience music and arts sessions, hydrotherapy, respite and much more. The reason why I am hosting this event is because Rainbows is close to my heart. For those of you who don't know, my niece Willow suffered 2 cardiac arrests at 3 weeks old. After spending the first few months of her life in hospital, undergoing a series of tests, operations and medicine alterations, Willow found her happy place in Rainbows. They didnt only support Willow and give her once in a lifetime experiences that wouldn't be safe for her to do outside of that environment, but they also were an incredible support to the family, allowing them to breathe after such a hard time. Without the care that Rainbows provides, many lives would be a lot different, and its for this reason we are hoping to raise some money to show how much they are appreciated and to ensure they can continue their amazing work. Included in your ticket: Glass of prosecco (or nozeco) The opportunity to explore the aquarium Glass bottom boat tour experience Speeches from those you're supporting Raffle with FINtastic prizes Come and join us for an exciting evening at the oldest aquarium in the world!

In this weekend workshop artist and educator Chloe Briggs brings another innovative drawing class to the Draw studio. With her usual mix of subtle drawing exercises and thoughtful reflection Chloe will help us think about new ways to approach drawing flowers, plants and leaves, bucking the stricter traditions of botanical drawing in favour of a more embodied drawing process. Chloe is based in Paris and although her ‘Drawing is Free’ workshops have an international audience, she rarely teaches in the UK, so this will be a wonderful chance to learn from one of Europe’s most beloved drawing educators.   Chloe’s workshop will be followed by Sarah Simblet’s ‘Drawing from Nature’ ; if you’d like to make it a full five days of drawing from plants, flowers and natural forms you might want to consider signing up for both.     What to Expect   This energising two-day workshop will involve a wide range of exercises, responding to plants and flowers that we will bring to the Draw studio. The ideas we explore will compliment the exercises from Chloe’s Patreon resources, with Chloe providing personal feedback with Draw tutor Jake Spicer on hand to assist.   What to Bring All materials are included with this workshop.

How Speed Dating Works in Brighton When you arrive at the Brighton venue you will be greeted by our friendly professional hosts. Once everyone has arrived and registered we will briefly explain the format of the evening. The ladies will then be asked to make their way to their allocated table. Once the ladies are seated the gentlemen will be asked to proceed to their first date. You will have 4 minutes to chat to each date, once the 4 minutes is over we will ring a bell to indicate the time is up and for the gentlemen to move to their next date. Four minutes is long enough to see if you click with the person you are talking to and whether you would like to see them again and also short enough if you don't. At the end of each date you have a brief few moments to make some notes on the person you have just dated. This is something to help jog your memory for the post event matching process the next day. Half way through the event you will have an interval break so you can nip to the toilet or top up your drink. Once all the dates are over you have the opportunity to stay on at the venue to mingle freely with others. Please remember to take your dating card home with you to assist you in entering in your ticks and potential matches. Post Event No later than 11am the following morning our matching system will be unlocked for you to enter your ticks from the previous evening. You have all day to tick as many people as you like from the night before.
