Open Studios
1-9th July
Open everyday 11-4pm
The gallery and studio will be throwing open its doors for the 2023 Far Open Art Trail. Showing work by Newnham artists Sharon Harvey and Kate Baugh there will be a great deal to see. Sharon will be exhibiting her evocative Landscapes and Botanicals in Oil and Acrylic alongside Kate Baugh's exciting and beautiful flower bricks, bowls and vases.
There will be new work from both artists alongside sketchbooks and prints and possibly a few bargains to be had as both Artists use this as an opportunity to have a studio clear out. Open Studios is a fantastic opportunity to visit the gallery in a more informal setting and chat to the artists about their processes and inspiration. We will be open everyday and look forward to meeting you.
