The Kindred Programme
The Kindred Programme is focussed on continued learning in a peer-led environment. It features exhibitions, performances, lectures, support groups, intimate artist studio visits, parties and ongoing weekly workshops like life drawing. All of this is included within your membership.
Four Pillars
Recognising that artists need more than affordable workspace alone, Kindred has developed four core pillars of support:
Space
Access to private and shared studios, workspaces, and specialist workshop facilities that would often be beyond the reach of individual practitioners.
Social
A thriving creative community where artists build relationships, exchange ideas, and develop both social and professional networks.
Learning
Free talks, workshops, mentoring, and professional development opportunities that support artistic growth and lifelong learning.
Exposure
Exhibitions, partnerships, and public-facing opportunities that help artists reach new audiences, build their careers, and generate income.
Artist Criteria
When a space becomes available, our Kindred team visits the list of applicants to find suitable matches and a few applicants will be contacted for a visit. Kindred runs a selective process which favours artists which are a good cultural fit along with the qualities below.
Our artists are, by nature, community minded. This is an essential quality for membership. We encourage our members to get to know each other and get involved in collaborations, the Kindred Programme, exhibitions and events.
Kindred offers a variety of opportunities - to learn more about professional practice through talks and seminars, to participate in exhibitions, to access critiques and to sell work. In return, we look for artists who are keen to support both fellow creatives and the wider ecology of what we’re building.
