SUMMARY:Permacomputing Club
DESCRIPTION:Date: Every MondayTime: 6.30-7.30pmLocation: SET Social\, 55A Nigel Road\, Peckham\, London\, SE15 4NPAdmission: Free entry\, RSVP optional \n\n\n\nRSVP\n\n\n\nHow can we rethink our relationship to harmful technologies? \n\n\n\nEvery Monday evening\, SET Social hosts the Permacomputing Club – a community gathering dedicated to cultivating resilient\, sustainable\, and low-tech alternatives to modern computing. Driven by anti-capitalist values\, the project builds a space in direct opposition to harmful tech monopolies and resource-heavy systems like AI. The club’s ethos is deeply inspired by permaculture and degrowth\, and guided by decolonial thinking and intersectional feminism. \n\n\n\nRather than focusing on tech “solutionism” or inventing greener gadgets\, this is a collaborative space centered on how hardware and software can prioritise adaptability\, transparency\, and care. Sessions emphasise collective discussion and hands-on maintenance over solo tinkering. Drop in to share skills\, explore regenerative computing\, practice repair\, and strategise ways to reduce the stranglehold of these pernicious systems. \n\n\n\nEveryone is welcome\, and the club particularly encourages women and non-binary folks to join us. Please bring your own tech\, and take a moment to read the club’s guiding principles at permacomputing.net/Principles before attending. \n\n\n\nThe club also hosts occasional workshops. You can find the full schedule at https://london.permacomputing.net/#event. \n\n\n\nRSVP\n\n\n\nArtist/organiser: Ana Meisel and Margot McEwen.

SUMMARY:Soft Ground: Textiles and Self-Soothing Workshop Series
DESCRIPTION:After a short pause\, we’re pleased to announce that Soft Ground will be recommencing on 31 July until 11 September 2026. \n\n\n\nSoft Ground is a programme of free weekly drop-in textile-based art sessions designed to support mental wellbeing through creativity\, routine\, and communal making. Drawing from neurodivergent practices and trauma-informed methodologies\, these sessions are open to everyone\, with a particularly warm welcome extended to neurodivergent participants. \n\n\n\nThe programme offers a gentle\, sensory-aware\, and low-pressure environment where you can engage with textile processes at your own pace\, using tactile making as a tool for self-soothing\, co-regulation\, and creative exploration. \n\n\n\nFor this next chapter\, we’re joined by textile artists Sue Mayo and Jenny McIlhatton\, who will each lead a series of mindful\, relaxing workshops using recycled materials and fashion waste. \n\n\n\nSessions follow a consistent weekly format designed to create structure and accessibility\, particularly for those who experience anxiety\, sensory overload\, or social isolation. While the programme centres neurodivergent experiences\, it is open to anyone in the local community interested in creativity as a pathway to wellbeing. \n\n\n\nThe programme will be taking place every Friday from 2-4pm at SET Social. Please note that there will be no session on 21st August. All sessions are free to attend and conclude with refreshments\, creating a relaxed space for conversation and connection. \n\n\n\nProgramme schedule and facilitators\n\n\n\nSue Mayo\n\n\n\nFriday 31 July & Friday 7 August (2-4pm)Sue works with recycled and preloved materials. In these sessions\, participants will explore ways of joining materials together by connecting images\, words and objects to create handmade bunting\, garlands and hangings. The workshops will introduce simple plaiting and weaving techniques\, as well as the use of air-dry clay to make buttons and beads. Participants will also create images and poems by cutting\, rearranging and reworking magazines and newspapers. The sessions will focus on making\, sharing and connecting materials\, with the aim of creating decorations for the body\, the home and public spaces. The workshops are designed to be welcoming and flexible\, allowing participants to join in at their own pace\, take breaks when needed\, and make work for themselves and others. \n\n\n\nJenny McIlhatton\n\n\n\n14\, 28 August\, 4 and 11 September (2-4pm)Jenny is an artist specialising in textiles\, with a background in fashion\, repurposing fashion waste and found objects in her practice. Through this series of workshops\, participants are invited to embrace the Japanese principles of wabi-sabi: the idea that something showing wear or age does not always need to be replaced. All the materials used throughout the workshops come from fashion industry waste. The playful samples of stitching and weaving produced across the sessions will help participants explore how processes of restoration can enhance beauty. Jenny will share simple\, mindful stitch exercises\, using rhythm and repetition to slow down and create a meditative experience. Participants will create memory collages\, intuitively selecting textures and colours to appliqué\, stitch\, or weave. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nDates: Every Friday\, from 31 July – 11 September (no session on 21 August)Times: 2-4pmWhere: SET Social\, 55a Nigel Road\, Peckham\, SE15 4NPAdmission: Free \n\n\n\nBook ticket\n\n\n\nProgramme credits\n\n\n\nThe programme is curated by Sylvia Keck\, Community Engagement Curator at Looking Forward. It is realised in partnership with SET and thanks to the support of the National Lottery Community Fund. \n\n\n\nAbout the organiser: Founded in 2019\, Looking Forward works internationally across contemporary art\, design\, and socially engaged practices. As curators and cultural producers\, they bring together artists\, researchers\, institutions\, and publics through medium and long-term projects that span exhibitions\, publishing\, public programming\, outreach\, communication and critical research.

SUMMARY:That Which Grows in the Swamp is Swallowed by the Stomach
DESCRIPTION:Screenshot\n\n\n\nPublic opening event: Thursday 20 August\, 6-9pmExhibition dates: 21 August – 6 SeptemberOpening hours: Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday\, 12-6pm Location: SET Vauxhall (16th Floor)\, Camelford House\, 89 Albert Embankment\, London\, SE1 7TPArtists: Andie Aylsworth\, Isis Powers Bird\, Keyannah Isaacs\, Holly Lou Jones\, Rinsanga Leivang\, Dani SmithAdmission: Free \n\n\n\nThat Which Grows in the Swamp is Swallowed by the Stomach is an ongoing exhibition project initiated and coordinated by Andie Aylsworth and Keyannah Isaacs\, which aims to invite new collaborators each year who share an interest in posthumanism\, ecology\, and material-led practice. The first iteration of the exhibition series was presented as part of Central Saint Martins’ 2023 degree show\, and the second was held at Hypha Studios in 2024. The upcoming exhibition will take place in SET Vauxhall’s project space on the 16th Floor as part of the SET Associate Members’ Programme\, with Dani Smith joining the curatorial team to develop the exhibition alongside the project’s founders. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition draws on posthuman thought through material\, bodily\, and ecological thinking\, considering the tension between organic and inorganic matter\, as well as human and nonhuman agency. It resists fixed hierarchies and binaries\, instead foregrounding entanglement\, instability\, and transformation. \n\n\n\nThis iteration places particular emphasis on materiality as a means of exploring these ideas. Through sensorial encounters and processes of material transformation\, the exhibition considers how materials themselves shape perception\, atmosphere\, and our relationships to bodies\, landscapes\, and ecological systems. \n\n\n\nRather than positioning landscape as a passive backdrop to human experience\, the exhibition considers landscape and body as mutually constitutive: porous\, shifting\, and continually shaping one another. Organic forms\, found materials\, and processes of transformation foreground the permeability between self and environment\, inviting audiences to consider how bodies are embedded within wider ecological systems. In doing so\, the exhibition offers temporary moments of displacement from everyday modes of perception\, encouraging visitors to inhabit spaces of ritual\, contemplation\, and imaginative possibility. \n\n\n\nWhile these ideas provide a conceptual framework for the exhibition\, they are intended as points of departure rather than fixed themes. We are interested in how each participating artist approaches these ideas through their own material language and practice\, and we welcome diverse interpretations that expand\, challenge\, or complicate the exhibition’s ongoing conversation. \n\n\n\nContributing artists\n\n\n\nDani Smith\nDani Smith is a visual artist working across painting\, drawing\, video and installation. Her practice explores material transformation\, symbolism and intimacy\, constructing dreamlike worlds that blur familiar and imagined realities.Instagram: @_danismth \n\n\n\n\nAndie Aylsworth\nAndie Aylsworth (b. 2000) is a London-based textile artist whose practice explores kinship with the more-than-human world through the lens of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK)\, learned via her indigenous heritage.Instagram: @andie.aylsworthWebsite: https://andieaylsworth.com/ \n\n\n\n\nHolly Lou Jones\nHolly Lou Jones is a multidisciplinary artist exploring bodily tension through sculpture\, installation\, photography\, and jewellery.

SUMMARY:SET Open Decks - Weekly DJ Open Booth Nights (extended)
DESCRIPTION:When: Every third Wednesday\, 6pm – midnightBring your gear: Vinyl or USB is welcomeWho’s it for: Open to everyone\, from first-time DJs to experienced selectors\, and anyone who wants to drop by and listenAdmission: Free (check in with the hosts in the Red Bar when you arrive) \n\n\n\nEvery third Wednesday of the month\, SET Open Decks expands into an extended session from early evening through to midnight. \n\n\n\nThe format keeps the same easy-going approach as our weekly nights. If you want to play\, just put your name in the hat for a random 30-minute slot. There is no fixed setlist and no pressure to perform. It’s a casual space to jump on club-standard equipment\, play back-to-back\, or just settle into the room. \n\n\n\nThe night is as much about listening as it is about playing. Whether you’re behind the decks\, learning by watching\, or just there for the music and the atmosphere\, everyone is welcome. \n\n\n\nWe also host occasional informal workshops covering technical skills\, library organisation\, and industry tips. Keep an eye on @set.social.peckham for announcements. \n\n\n\nArtwork by @dutchiestudio

They also uplift the voices of Palestinians\, and campaign for an end to the barriers to health and dignity that come from living through occupation\, displacement\, discrimination\, and conflict. \n\n\n\nSwing by the garden\, grab a drink\, and rummage through the rails for a great cause. \n\n\n\nHow it works\n\n\n\n\nBring a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 10 items. We ask that everything you bring is clean\, in great condition\, and ready to be loved by someone new!\n\n\n\nYou’ll get 1 token per item you bring. If you bring a special piece worth over £40 (we use the good-faith honor system here!)\, you’ll receive 2 tokens.\n\n\n\nUse your tokens to “buy” any of the donated items on the racks.\n\n\n\nTo keep things simple\, all clothes are considered donated once they enter the swap shop. Any gems left over at the end of the night will be donated to nearby charity shops.\n\n\n\n\nBook a ticket

Their projects emerge via site-responsive processes\, exploring found and discarded things. \n\n\n\n\nErif Brooks Price\nI want to use my body as a tool to communicate the somatic to an audience. Being horny\, being scared\, being upset\, finding it all funny\, passing from me to you. \n\n\n\n\nGabriel Moreau\nGabriel Moreau is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice examines the conditions of contemporary image culture and the accelerated circulation of digital media. \n\n\n\n\nIris McConnell\nIris McConnell is a multimedia artist from London currently studying on the MFA Fine Art programme at Goldsmiths University. \n\n\n\n\nJoseph Dalton\nJoseph Dalton is a writer and artist.

She creates layered compositions and installations that emptiness\, disconnection\, alienation and belonging. \n\n\n\n\nSam Bramwell\nMy practice explores how objects mediate built environments\, examining maintenance\, infrastructure and systems of organisation through sculpture\, installation and site-specific interventions. \n\n\n\n\nFlorence Apple\nAcross video\, sculpture\, and performance\, Florence explores shifting states of damnation and salvation\, drawing equally from high-culture canon and low-culture detritus.
