This special combined Social/Roundtable version of Slate’s monthly get-together will feature three spectacular black artists to ask the question ‘What does it mean to be a black artist in the North?’ Join us for free wine and juice, and ask our expert panel anything at all about being a black artist in the North of England.
The guest speakers are Nwando Ebizie, Keisha Thompson and Naomi Sumner-Chan.
The event is free to attend, but try to arrive early to enjoy the refreshments.
