“In September of 2010 Alex Bamford presented the first miniclick photography talk down here in Brighton. The monthly, free photography talks have gone from strength to strength since then and have gathered quite a bit of a following as we approach their first birthday. A couple of months ago, Slaughter House opened up in Hoxton. Slaughter House is a fantastic creative space set up to bring together photographers, hair stylists and tattoo artists, with facilities on site to cater for all of them.
To celebrate both of these milestones, Laura Pannack and I have been curating a couple of summer events, one to be held in Brighton on Sept 21st, and one at Slaughter House in London on Sept 29th. Laura was invited by Chris Harris to put on photography events and talks at Slaughter House. London-to-Brighton-to-London-to-Brighton.
At 7pm on 21st September, at The Old Market in Brighton & Hove, the first event is taking place. The centrepiece is an open panel discussion featuring some of the best photographers in the UK today. The bar will also be open, music playing and general merry-making happening all evening ’till late. I will also be releasing an extremely limited edition souvenir publication featuring the first 12 miniclick speakers, available exclusively on the night.” Tickets are £5 and available here.
