Holding The Fort is an exhibition by six East Sussex-based contemporary artists led by Rachel Cohen. Working with sculpture, installation, drawing and performance, each artist will make site-specific installations in response to this evocative, atmospheric 19th Century Fort. The works will be distributed around the site in many locations inviting visitors to explore and discover the Fort itself as well as the artworks. Some works will change over time, be reworked or relocated during the exhibition's run.  

The exhibition opens with a free PV and some live performance work from 3pm - 5pm on Sunday 28th July. Sign up here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/holding-the-fort-private-view-tickets-63862663947
