Give Presence

Studio 404's fourth art show celebrates attention, generosity and human connection with an exhibition, live art, free workshops and a live auction.

GIVE PRESENCE is Studio 404's fourth show, an invitation to slow down during the consumer-heavy month of December and think differently about what we give — time, care, knowledge, creativity, memory, ritual and simply being present with others. The evening features a large exhibition of emerging and established artists, live art, free creative workshops, food and drinks, and chances to make rather than consume. For the first time the event partners with The Auction Collective for a live auction, with proceeds supporting Studio 404's free programming in 2027. The show runs for three hours and under-18s may attend with a parent or legal guardian.
