Join us for a night of celebration to launch the Courses for Dis-Course(s) publication and podcasts. Courses for Dis-Course(s) by Roo Dhissou took the form of an exhibition and a series of events and dinners hosted by the artist with a group of British South Asian women and non-binary artists. The project concludes with the launch of an 8-episode podcast made with Tom Harris and 500 page publication featuring contributions Roo Dhissou, Raju Rage, Kavitha Balasingham, Seema Mattu, Yasmeen Fathima Thantrey, Hafsah FitzGibbon and others.
