Lucky Dip brings together a collection of work by eight local artists working in multiple disciplines and mediums. From costume to collage, sculpture and installation, the work is informed by a multitude of ideas, processes and practices.

2025 Lucky Dip Artists:

The exhibiting artists were recipients of an experimental grant programme, launched by ‘a space’ arts in 2021. The Lucky Dip bursary scheme offered multiple artists in the SO postcode £500 to fund the creation of a new artwork or activity. In order to remove barriers around access and inclusion, proposals were not assessed, and bursaries were awarded to artists through a lottery selection.

The scheme has provided financial support and a much-needed boost of positivity at a time when many artists are facing huge challenges. The bursaries enabled the artists to experiment and take risks to push their practice forward.

As part of ‘a space’ arts’ mission to work towards becoming an anti-racist organisation, four of the Lucky Dip bursaries were awarded to Global Majority artists.
