Lauren’s favourite thing about Kettle’s Yard:

One of many highlights of my role at Kettle’s Yard is working on the fantastic music programme and meeting a wonderful variety of people who come through our doors. Not to mention the inspirational house and exhibitions. Even when not working on my own art practice I am surrounded by such creativity.

It’s hard to pin down one favourite thing… The way the day moves through both the house (and sometimes gallery 2), casting beams of light and shadow into the space, forever drawing your attention in a new way to an object or artwork you thought familiar, is often spectacular. Especially in those golden autumnal hours! Jim Ede knew how to harness this to create those important and magical moments.
