PYT Fairfield proudly announces Tison Brown as our inaugural Pitches & Tea Artist-in-Residence recipient. Tison was one of ten young and emerging artists to present their pitch to an audience, walking away with the top score.

As part of his residency, Tison will focus on a new work described as a commentary on the complexities of human relationships, inspired by his own lived experiences navigating the world as ‘an incredibly lost’ young person.
