Each year, Spike Island offers prestigious fellowships to promising emerging artists selected through an open call to graduating students across the School of Arts. Fellows are awarded a shared studio at Spike Island for one year, giving them space and support to develop their professional practices within Bristol’s vibrant artistic community.
We are delighted to announce this year’s UWE X Spike Island Graduate Fellows:
Tess Foley, BA Photography graduate (UWE Bristol)
Martha Fox, BA Fine Art and Writing graduate (UWE Bristol)
Charli-Ann Padilla, BA Fine Art graduate (UWE Bristol)
They will be joined by Bath Spa Fellow George Morgan.
On 22 October, join us for Night of the Fellows 2026, an evening of presentations, installations and networking with the Spike Island community, wishing best of luck to our outgoing and incoming Fellows. See here for booking information.
