Turf is Croydonâs homegrown art space
Founded in 2013 by Croydon locals, Turf Projects is Croydonâs homegrown artist space and the first entirely artist-run contemporary art space in the borough. Based in Croydonâs Whitgift Shopping Centre, we; đ± Put on free exhibitions, showcasing local & national artists. đ± Run free creative workshops, open to all, including skills workshops for artists, Family Art Fun Days & workshops with local schools. đ± Provide affordable artist studios. đ± Host two collectives of local artists; MOSS (a collective of local learning disabled artists) and Art Press (a collective of Croydon artists aged 13-18). đ± Host a community project space which is free to use by Croydon locals. đ± Run a support & residency programme for Croydon School of Art & BRIT school students, family workshops, projects with local schools & more. đ± Support artists with paid opportunities via exhibitions, workshops and commissions, with a principle that artists should be fairly paid for their work and time. Since 2013 Turf has supported the work of over 500 artists! Turf is a registered charity (#1160527), and currently exists across two meanwhile-use retail units. A second site at Keeley Road, âLittle Turfâ, is our original home which now houses production space for artists & makers. You can hire that for commercial productions, too!

Owen Haterley - On Croydon
Owen Haterley  âThis place has suffered from over a century of non-planning, and the result is chaos â dereliction next to new build, dramatically crammed and then almost criminally low-density. Itâs full of surprises for the walker, but itâs a disastrous way to run a city, as the horrendous traffic, or the decidedly fractious tenor of public interaction, makes very clear. But what does it say about South-East, suburban England, the area that lords it over the rest of the country? This place is, in theory, a major centre of our most powerful, most wealthy, most leafy area. Youâd never guess, though, as it feels like another Britain entirely - a poor but multiracial, intriguing but miserable place which could really do with social planning and social housing, rather than more speculation...â http://urbantrawl.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Croydon
