The Ballad of Peckham Rye Commission: Hello Nature

Updated: 14 September 2021

Hello Nature is a series of artist-led commissions and workshops that aim to provide greater opportunities for people to engage with the natural environment. We are inviting artists to engage with ideas of ecology and sustainable food production, growing and cultivating plants, particularly within an urban environment. We are interested to hear ideas you might have for one-off workshop sessions and/or small-scale artistic interventions that could relate to activities aiming to; share practical skills; engage people through discussion; explore opportunities for co-production; make and/or present new work within this specific context. The project is being delivered in partnership with The Ballad of Peckham Rye, a not-for-profit contemporary art commissioning organisation, Action For Refugees in Lewisham (AFRIL), an organisation established to support asylum seekers, vulnerable migrants and refugees in south east London and One Tree Hill Allotment Society, a member run community allotment.

Eligibility: 3 x early-career artists

What you get: Art fee of £200 (plus travel expenses up to £50 and materials agreed in advance)
