Our aim

THE OLD JET AIRSPACE PROGRAMME PROVIDES FREE STUDIO SPACE AND MENTORSHIP FOR ARTISTS WHO ARE STARTING THEIR CAREERS.

Youth Music Project

The first Airspace opportunity for musicians was backed by Youth Music and People’s Postcode Lottery. The purpose of this callout was to select three emerging 18-25 professionals in the music industry help them establish sustainable professional freelance careers as artists, industry professionals or both. The first Airspace artists, Esme Emerson, are now signed to Communion Records!

The second Airspace artist, Flores Blue, said that “The Airspace programme is a shining light for grassroots artists like myself. Airspace has helped me develop as a musician by providing the tools and knowledge to deepen my understanding of production and composition, and the care and support to grow as an artist. It is incredible that it exists and I really hope that it continues to champion young creatives in the future.”

Visual Arts Incubator 

The first Airspace opportunity for visual artists was backed by Arts Council England. The purpose of this callout was to launch the careers of three new outstanding visual artists. The artists went on to exhibit and sell their work at Old Jet!

One of the participants said “I have learnt a mountain of new skills that have all been delivered within tutorials from highly knowledgeable artists, designers, writers, curators and many other creative practitioners. My goal of being a full time artist feels much closer, it feels within reach now.”
