Gallery, gig, mural walk, theatre, screening, craft fair…

Yes β€” with a because.

Starter

Starter: Tonight You're the Audience

Key Question: Makers forget how art arrives. This week's event β€” gallery, gig, mural walk or screening β€” flips you to the receiving end. What will you notice that a non-artist can't?

I Do

I Do: Capturing an Event Without Losing It

Key Idea: The capture sheet works in the moment: three specifics, two reactions, one question, one overheard β€” before the exit doors.
Step 0 of 4

Three specifics

Named works/moments, not vibes: 'the corner mural's scale', 'the drummer's cracked cymbal sound', 'the print room smell'. Specifics survive; vibes evaporate.

Two first reactions

Honest and timestamped: 'gut-pulled by the red room; bored by the video piece.' First reactions are DATA, not verdicts β€” verdicts come later.

One question + one overheard

'How long did the mural take?' + the kid behind me: 'it looks like our street.' The crowd's receiving is part of the event.

The photo discipline

Two photos max (where permitted), both of DETAILS you'll reference β€” a camera roll of everything is a capture of nothing.

I Do

I Do: From Capture to Review

Key Idea: The review = intention represented, experience evidenced, verdict earned, transfer named. Four short paragraphs; the capture sheet feeds all four.
Step 0 of 4

Represent the intention

'The show puts industrial Teesside at gallery scale…' β€” what it's TRYING to do, fairly, before any judging.

Evidence the experience

My specifics + reactions: the red room's pull, the video's drag β€” each tied to a feature that caused it.

Earn the verdict

Taste separated from craft: 'Not to my taste, superbly made' is a legal verdict. So is the reverse β€” with evidence.

Name the transfer

'The mural's 20Γ— dry-brush licenses my A3 push.' One line connecting their work to YOUR practice β€” Part B feeding Part A.

Independent Work

Independent Work β€” Studio Time

Instructions: Work at your level. If you missed the visit: choose from the studio event bank instead β€” a recorded gallery walk-through, an online collection you can browse, or a filmed local mural or maker documentary. Reviewing a recorded event still evidences Part B. Evidence photos go in your Arts Award portfolio β€” your event capture sheet + review (Part B complete after this cycle).
20:00

Supported

Task: Complete the capture sheet at/from the event (3 specifics, 2 reactions, 1 question, 1 overheard) + the framed mini-review.

Steps: Sheet at the event Β· review from the frame Β· verdict with one because.

Standard

Task: Full four-paragraph review from your capture sheet: intention, evidence, earned verdict, named transfer.

Steps: Intention fair Β· evidence tied to causes Β· taste/craft separated Β· transfer feeds Part A.

Stretch

Task: Review + the audience study: what the crowd's receivings (incl. your overheard) suggest about who this event serves β€” and one line the curators should hear.

Steps: Full review Β· the crowd data read honestly Β· the curator line written to be SENT (we will).

Lundy Loop

Lundy Loop β€” Your Voice in the Studio

Why: Article 12 β€” your view on this work counts, and it changes what the studio does next.

πŸšͺ SPACE

The event is the space β€” off-site or visiting-artist session run to YOUR capture routes; move as your looking demands (venue rules respected).

πŸ“£ VOICE

Your question from the sheet gets ASKED β€” to the artist, the staff, or the room. Questions are audience rights.

πŸ‘₯ AUDIENCE

You ARE the audience this week β€” and your reviews go to the venue/artist, who asked to receive them. Real reception, both ways.

⭐ INFLUENCE

The curator lines from Stretch (and any volunteered) are sent to the venue. Last cohort's line changed a label height. Yours may too.
