Exhibition · 40 guests · December 2022
Mehmed was absolutely fantastic in providing support in the lead up to and on the day of the event. His brother was also a big help. The venue was spacious and was perfect for the atmosphere we were trying to create. No request was ever too much for them and they gracefully fulfilled each request so quickly. I wouldn’t have wanted to host my first solo exhibition anywhere else, as their expertise on art installations and what is needed for an exhibition was very necessary and useful. I would definitely recommend The Factory to any artist or anyone who needs a nice, cosy place to host an intimate event.
