Testimonials
Claudia Lastra
CEO, Arts Catalyst
Niamh White MBE
Co-Founder, Hospital Rooms
As a visiting curator with Hospital Rooms at Sandwell CAMHS, Jade Foster combined professional rigor with a deep personal connection to the community. Having grown up in Sandwell, Jade held an intrinsic, nuanced understanding of the site and its people. They expertly balanced artist development, youth engagement, and curatorial vision, creating a safe and generative space for everyone involved. Jade’s impact extended seamlessly into their written piece for the project publication and their thoughtful, reflective contributions to the evaluation process, both of which brought rich insight to the project's lasting legacy.

ACAVA — Professional Development Seminar
Navigating Practice, Values and Person, 2025
Commissioned by ACAVA to lead a seminar in their autumn professional development series on how artists can weave advocacy and personal ethics into a sustainable practice. Delivered online with a live Q&A, the session brought together lived experience, theory and language to give participants practical frameworks for navigating power, partnership and integrity in their work.
In a participant survey, 100% had learnt new approaches they could apply in their practice, and 100% would recommend the programme to others. Attendees described the session as “so useful and so inspiring” and “really grounding in a time of rising fascism.”
