Turps Surgeries BRIGHTON

If you are an artist in Brighton looking for a dedicated session of critique and professional feedback, the Turps Surgeries BRIGHTON workshop is scheduled for this spring. This event is part of the wider Turps Surgeries initiative, which is well-regarded in the painting community for providing specialized mentorship sessions, often drawing on the expertise associated with the Turps Banana school and magazine.

The workshop is set for Friday, April 24, 2026, and it’s a full-day commitment, running from 10:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. The format is designed to allow participants a substantial block of time to receive focused attention on their current practice. Leading this particular session will be two established artists, Laura Wormell and Aimee Parrott. Having two experienced practitioners offering input means participants can expect varied and in-depth perspectives on their work, which is the core value proposition of these 'surgeries.'

For those planning to attend, the location is the Phoenix Art Space, a familiar cultural hub in the city, situated at 10 – 14 Waterloo Place, Brighton BN2 9NB. Regarding the practical details, this is a paid workshop, with the cost set at £175.00. Given the price point and the context of the Turps program, the event is clearly aimed at artists, particularly painters, who are looking to invest in their professional development and secure high-level, structured critique. If you are serious about getting expert feedback and are ready to commit a full day to intensive discussion about your work, the information confirms that booking is required through a purchase option.
