Speed Dating for Artists
Friday 16 May, 6.30pm
Nash & Brandon Rooms

After a very successful first event last month we’re taking on Cupid’s bow and arrow again to put some love back into the lives of creatives at this very special ICA Speed Dating for Creatives event. Those taking part talk to someone for four minutes at a time, the crucial difference is that each of you will bring a piece of your own work - a drawing, a photograph of a sculpture, a design, an mp3, anything you can carry in to the ICA - to talk about. At the end of the evening, after a complimentary glass of wine or two, any pairs of artists who have ticked each other's boxes (that's not a metaphor) on the speed dating card will be put in touch with each other via email. After that, who knows what romantic adventures await?
£20 / £18 Concessions / £16 ICA Members.

To sort the men from the, well women, we will need your:
• first name
• surname
• gender
• e-mail address
• telephone number
If you are coming along with a friend get to know them better by having this information at the ready for them too. Once armed with this info email it to speed.dating@ica.org.uk to book your place.
To ensure there are no lonesome hearts on the night, bookings must be paid for immediately and any withdrawals at this stage are non-refundable.
See the ICA website for more details

“I went to the bar with quite a few others from the group and everyone had really good feedback to give. Most said that they had previously considered speed dating but for one reason or another had decided against it, whereas the profile, location, allure etc of the ICA instilled confidence and intrigue for everyone. Irrespective of any 'love' business with the ladies, it was a really enjoyable social evening. I certainly would come again." Male Speed Dater, Speed Dating for Artists, 9th April 2008

Please note we are currently in the process of organising an ICA Speed Dating event for gay and lesbian artists to take place on 13th June 2008 .
