Can’t believe my artist residency at Brixton Library is almost done – i’ll be down each day until 24th April Monday, so if you can pass through please do & check out the exhibition spread.
Drop me an email at pinsartist@gmail.com if there is a specific time slot you’re thinking of whizzing down, as the Library may occasionally have certain events on at specific times, other than that, the Library is open daily…

career support…
community space…
workspace…
essential resource centres…
more than just ‘books’…
