You do not just have to be in London or UK to take part you can potentially be from anywhere in the world.
Previous artists who have taken part have been from Australia, India and Germany (thanks to the powers of the web, downloading & shipping)

The idea is to recruit artists/musicians and showcase you/your work together under the same roof! over 2days (a very big roof! And inside has a stage, one main hall, lots of other rooms a cascading staircase, big windows, hallways, split over 2 levels, lots of character and great moody lighting) the venue is Shoreditch Church

The Events will be Photographed and filmed.

There is no topic or theme for art/music it is whatever you make it,
Just make sure you are skilled as an artist, committed & organised
Freedom of expression is central to the art/music movement
You can use artwork/music already made/produced and ready to be on show
or it can be created especially for the event.

Initially Artists and musicians pay nothing to become involved in art/music and gain everything by getting involved, we hang your work, have some music equipments available for your performance, promote, organise, hopefully help to sell your artwork, get you gigs, networking or at the very least make your experience & portfolio, Cv bigger and better
Art/Music only takes a 25% cut on all artwork sold at the event & 20% cut on all merchandise sold at the event.
The public pay a small entry fee of £5 which is a small price to pay for a packed day timetable Showcasing artists and musicians fun & frolics, food and drinks will be available.
And all funds go back into art/music and into to having another event.

Aim of the game?
'Art/Music' is here to inform people on the well of talent, give creative people a vent & platform, sell your artwork & merchandise (band Album’s, ep’s, fashion, design all for sale) network, enjoy, chill, be creative, party
