In The Frame

In The Frame is a new Arts Council England–funded project designed to bridge the gap between emerging young talent and the established art world. The exhibition will showcase the work of 10 professional artists alongside pieces created by students from The Bridge Academy Learning Space, a London-based SEN school, following a ten-week creative programme. Through collaboration and public exhibition, the project seeks to challenge traditional barriers in the arts and highlight the importance of inclusivity in creative spaces.

Working with with an art therapist, students have explored the exhibition’s central theme of 'Roots' and so reflecting on their personal connections to community and their creative journeys. Their works will be shown alongside artists such as Priest, Jack Gywer, Matilde Roque, and Demi Dawkins, among others, uniting diverse creative voices across experience and perspective.

In the Frame: Roots runs from 12–14 December 2025 at The Bomb Factory, Holborn (103 Kingsway, London WC2B 6QX), with a private view on 12 December.
Admission is free, and all works will be available through a blind auction, with a percentage of the proceeds supporting the project’s future development.
