## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

Crate is an artist-led organisation based in East Kent supporting contemporary visual artists' research and practice. Crate promotes critical debate and the exchange of ideas without prescribed outcomes. 

The building combines studio space and project space and is designed to give artists access to dedicated, affordable space for experimentation, production, documentation and research. 

The Charitable objectives are: 

1. To relieve financial hardship among people living or working in East Kent by providing such persons with  affordable studio and project space which they could not otherwise afford through lack of means. 

2. To advance the education and appreciation of contemporary art by providing seminars, workshops and exhibitions, and by providing opportunities for critical debate and professional development. 

The Charity's objectives are for the benefit of the public, in particular members of the art community in Thanet and East Kent.

UCA/CRATE Graduate Award 

CRATE in partnership with UCA Canterbury offers fine art graduates a place of research, production and display with mentoring sessions to realise a public outcome. This award provides time, space and support to develop new work, seen as a bridge between education and self-directed practice. 

Following on from the success of the four previous years awards, CRATE and UCA offered a Graduate Award to eight students:- 

Admire Ncube Frankie Brown Konstantinos Papagiannopoulos Peter Leigh Samuel Vilanova Teddie Newton Tyler Potter Xingru Chen 

Due to Covid restrictions we were unable to host the Crate/UCA Grad Award in the normal way. This presented us with some problems such as access to the project space, and grads benefitting from all the experience of using that space to research ideas and host public outcomes, but interestingly we discovered some benefits and advantages of hosting a virtual residency. This experience has forced us to look at new ways of making the residency more accessible. 

The residency was largely digital. This allowed us to award the scheme to many more graduates than we would normally be able to accommodate. It meant that overseas grads or grads living far from Kent were able to partake in the residency. It allowed greater flexibility for the grads, as some did end up working in the space in small numbers and putting on a physical show, while others chose to present digital outcomes. It taught us a lot about using social media and the benefits of good digital communication. It meant that grads who were working full time, or who had disabilities were able to use the scheme to their advantage in their time, and in their way. We also learnt that we were able to reach new audiences, especially those who were shielding at home, and people with disabilities. 

All the students graduated from the Fine Arts BA course. They presented two Exhibitions "Return Address" from the 26th - 27th September 2020. The Grads invited all past participants of the award to send work to be curated by the grads on the theme of "Return Address" and stipulated that the work needed to fit through the Crate letterbox. 

Artists who took part were:Clarissa Beveridge Frankie Brown Kaushikee Gupta Saar Jackson Ult Jaeger Peter Leigh Ty Locke Kostas Papagiannopoulos Tyler Potter Samuel Vilanova 

The second exhibition was "Grad Award 2020 Group Show" 9th-10th October 2020. This was a group show featuring the work of:-

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

Admire Ncube ran an Instagram takeover for Crate from 12th-21st September 2020. He researched the imagery of Africans in 15th Century Renaissance art and specifically how the rise of the Slave Trade led hand in hand with a rise in racist iconography and portrayal of Black people to justify the slave trade. 

Tyler Potter hosted an Instagram takeover for Crate from 24th-30th October 2020 based on her observations and experiences of living on a boat and travelling around the UK. 

As part of the Award, Coral Brookes hosted an online session on working with materials.Steve Alan, a Crate programmer, led on the project. This is a continuing partnership between CRATE and UCA to develop future opportunities for graduating students, with a longer term view of continued working relationships and support for those graduates. 

Crate Curated Project Space Programme 

Over the past five years CRATE has been developing a Programming Group, led by a group of local artists and studio holders who are interested in creating a new programme providing opportunities for meaningful engagement offering welcoming and generous opportunities for public engagement. 

June 2020 - Dream Safari hosted a series of online workshops and videos on "How to Make a Zine". These are currently archived on Crate's YouTube channel. 

August - October 2020 - Crate programmed a residency called "Trickster, Teacher, Chaos, Clay Digital residency" in collaboration with Durham Gallery in Canada. Two Black Kent-based artists (Shamica Ruddock and Laura-Joy Pieters) were selected by Margate-based writer and filmmaker, Yero Timi-Biu for the Trickster, Teacher, Chaos, Clay Digital Residency. Both artists were given a reference point of Octavia E Butler's unfinished sci-fi book series 'Earthseed' of parables about humanity's uncertain future. 

Laura-Joy Pieters presented four podcasts discussing the themes of the book, and a final outcome of a film. 

Shamica Ruddock presented a digital soundscape exploring the environs and emotions of the books. 

The two Ontario artists who took part were Kaya Joan and Whitney French. 

20th - 23rd September - Matt Mapleston ran Streaming workshops from his studio The Geekery. This workshop was  set up to support artists in improving their digital streaming skills especially in the light of Covid restrictions. 

26th November - 10th December 2020 - Matt Mapleston ran a series of digital online workshops on 3D printing. 

January 2021 - "On Top" curated by Victoria Barrow Williams. Victoria mentored and supported a group of young Margate Black people to showcase their skills and present public outcomes. 

The artists who took part were:Kane McArthur - Rapper Oliver Truelove - Photographer Tom West - Photographer Felicia Hollingum - Poet Sade Ricks - Dancer Josh Denny - Illustrator Callier Epps - Illustrator 

Many of the performances were filmed in Elsewhere and then presented through Crate Social Media channels. 

Kane McArthur also hosted a live stream debate on black identity in Margate with the young artists who took part. 

December 2020 - January 2021 - Victoria Barrow Williams curated a podcast series hosted on Margate Radio and through Crate digital channels called "Toe to Fro". This radio series was hosted by Kelly Abbott and looked at how hair grooming for the Black community cements and informs their sense of identity.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## Other Project Space Activity 

The Crate Trustees remain committed to the project space as a flexible space provision for studio holders, and other artists. 

6th - 12th June 2020 - Crate Studio holders Elouise Farley, and Rhona Foster hosted Banner Making Workshops for the Thanet Black Lives Matter marches. 

October 2020 - Freya Tewelde's "Lost for Territory (under the series of ('The Fossil and Ready Made')" was hosted in the project space as part of Margate Now 2020 which was curated by People Dem Collective. The work was a two part film installation which was a reflective study on present-day territories which navigate through everyday diasporic experiences. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

Primary income this year was from studio rents, and changes in studio holders were managed without significant void periods. 

For much of the year the project space was given over to the programme when we weren't closed due to Covid. 

## ACE Emergency Response Fund 

We applied and were awarded £6926 from ACE for the Emergency Response Fund. 

This enabled us to buy digital equipment to expand our digital and live streaming programme. 

We created a programme designed to expand our audiences and practitioners to better represent our diverse community. This was headed by Victoria Barrow Williams. 

We invited Tonic Theatre to provide unconscious bias training and to support us in the process of compiling a new three year plan that will provide us with a template for improving our diversity outreach programme, in terms of audience engagement, practitioners, studio-holders and trustees. This is still an ongoing process, and its findings have been incorporated into our ACE bid to support us in carrying out our aims and objectives. 

## Thanet District Council Covid Support Fund 

We received £7500 from Thanet District Council hardship fund. This allowed us to provide rent rebates to our studio holders when Crate was closed and they were unable to come in. When we did reopen with Covid measures in place, some studio holders were still shielding and we were able to support them financially during this period. 

Funding was received from "University for the Creative Arts". Grant funding raised for the project space programme provides CRATE with significant opportunities to fulfill its charitable objectives and actively engage in supporting innovative fine art practice. 

There are a set of financial requirements and potential developments that CRATE has given consideration to over this year, and that the Board of Trustees will continue to give time to. These include: a strong commitment to provide low cost studio space for artists, the need to increase reserves to maintain and develop the building; the ambition to support fine art practice through an ambitious programme in the project space. How to balance these needs, and ensure CRATE has a long term sustainable future, is a major priority as CRATE moves forward. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The Charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 1985. The Charity is managed by a Board of Trustees who meet regularly during the year. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
