ART & ABOUT<br />
In town this month...<br />
Hizze Fletcher-King<br />
It’s not all black & white is a solo show of work by artist,<br />
curator and gallery owner Hizze Fletcher-King. You<br />
might have spied her bold and expressive work around<br />
the city this summer: she was chosen by Netflix<br />
to produce a number of murals for their UK-wide<br />
Orange Is The New Black x Pride campaign, with the<br />
<strong>Brighton</strong> parade passing right by one of her murals at<br />
the bottom of North Road. ‘My new work expresses<br />
my life as an ageing queer woman’, says Hizze. “Life IS colourful but not without pain, through my<br />
art I want to communicate the happiness and angst we can all consciously feel.” See her latest work at<br />
BRUSH in Gloucester Road from the 4th-31st of <strong>December</strong>.<br />
The award-winning Museum of Ordinary People (MOOP)<br />
returns this month for a special exhibition co-created<br />
by members of the public. Mini MOOP: Christmas is an<br />
exploration of people’s Christmas memories – be they happy,<br />
sad, funny or serious – told through everyday objects. The<br />
exhibition reveals the diverse ways that people experience<br />
the festive period, enabling them to share their personal<br />
stories. Find them at Jubilee Library from 5th-29th.<br />

The Mitres Touch is at 35<br />
North Gallery, until the<br />
22nd. Fine art framers<br />

happens to them after they leave their workshop.<br />
This exhibition brings together a collection of<br />
artworks selected, framed and curated by the<br />
passionate pair. Artists include Becky Blair,<br />
Abigail Bowen, Luke Brown, Mel Evans,<br />
