Portfolio X Windmill Community Gardens
Ground Floor & Clore Learning Studio
'Portfolio' is a platform for young people living in Kent and Medway to get their art and ideas out in the world. Each year we collaborate with a local organisation to set the brief and select work to be shown as part of our summer exhibition.
Please note: there are periods when Clore Learning Studio will be closed. Find out more here.
Portfolio is a platform for young people to get their art and ideas out in the world. Each year we pair up with someone new (artists, advocacy groups, fellow young people) to set a theme and select work to be shown at Turner Contemporary as part of our summer exhibition. It’s free to enter, selected pieces are shown as part of a group show for three months and seen by over 80,000 people. It’s an opportunity not to be missed.
This year we’ve joined up with Windmill Community Gardens, a local community group, who seek to create a safe and sustainable environment for people and nature work harmoniously together by utilising what is available, sharing resources and reusing materials.
Through the theme ADAPT, we hope to encourage aspiring artists to take a closer look at their surroundings, explore sustainability and find innovative ways to create art.
