Last week we celebrated the 15th “Open Art” exhibition in The Greenfield Gallery at Greenfield Arts. The exhibition, which takes place every year at this time, showcases the work of the talented people working in and around Newton Aycliffe.
After the quickest install on record, thanks to the fantastic Cree volunteers, the exhibition is now open and getting some great comments from visitors!
Over 50 artists are involved this year, with more than 120 works on display. Paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, textiles and sculptures show the range of creativity and ideas from artists across the North East of England.
This inspiring exhibition is a riot of colour and images – and provided a great opportunity for a group of Year 1 students from Aycliffe Village Primary School who visited last week! The children loved seeing the range of work on display, and were inspired to create their own artworks with our Gallery & Programme Assistant.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our celebration and Craft Fair for the exhibition last week – we had a great time! The exhibition is now open until Wednesday 22nd April – for more information visit our website www.greenfield-arts.co.uk
