Lost & Found - The Gallery’s Young People’s Project
MK Gallery’s Young People’s Project was established in 2007 with a three year grant from the Big Lottery. The group, which has branded itself Lost & Found, aims to develop opportunities for people aged 15-24 years to create exciting and challenging cultural projects and events with and for their peers, including visual art, music and film. Lost & Found members have the opportunity to develop a variety of skills, including leadership, project management, technical, budgetary, fundraising, marketing, communications, social and life skills.
In early 2013 the Gallery offered Lost & Found the opportunity to curate and organise an exhibition for the Project Space at MK Gallery. The group commissioned artist Aaron Head, sharing experiences through a series of workshops and creative activities. This activity influenced and informed the final exhibition, And, an assembly of new and existing films, meanderings and found materials.
Most recently the group produced, ran and recorded a live music event hosting the bands Bordeaux and Bleach on the Rocks as part of the Gallery’s “Saturday Live Music” programme.
