Saturday 8th August – Sunday 10th August

Launch Event: Friday 8th August, 6pm – 10pm

RIPE Live: Ripe Coconuts #01 will feature a showcase of new works by local and emerging artists, plus you can enjoy a live DJ set, food and drinks at the Alfred Arcade and the Alfred Arms on the night.

Explore our latest RIPE exhibition at the Alfred Arcade, Ripe Coconuts #01, the first in a two-part exhibition of outstanding work by a group of recent graduates from Solent University and Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton.

The project has provided an opportunity for a group of emerging artists to exhibit a recent body of work in a new space, the Alfred Arcade. The artists have the opportunity to meet, exhibit and engage in critical debates; forming networks and friendships that will help them sustain a fruitful visual arts practice here in Southampton.
