Stroud Brewery is set to host an exciting line-up of artists on Saturday, 7pm, writes Oisin Hayden Burrell.
The event is a fundraiser for the Stroud-based community interest group, On The Brink Arts. Founded by Megan Medley in 2021, On The Brink Arts is a platform for communities across Gloucestershire to engage with the issues surrounding climate change and the environment through film, art and music.
The project puts special emphasis on empowering young people who feel particularly disengaged and anxious about their future, by encouraging them to make positive change using their creativity and imagination.
The night starts with the screening of ‘Language of Harmony, The Power of Music’, shortly followed by the performances of eight young local artists. Expect a magnetic night with spoken-word poetry from M.T Pockets and Solly, followed by soul-full jazz from Tilly Mackie, Hip-Hop from Budd Beginnings, Righteous Heretious and Rudi. The night will draw to a close with back-to-back Old Skool Jungle sets from Charlie and Miss Rhitaliate.
This will be a demonstration of Stroud’s promising next generation. Each artist offers their own visionary approach to their form of creative expression, this will be a night you won’t want to have missed.-
