We showcase works by artists David Lyon Art, Samantha Ward Art, Ryoko Minamitani and other local and regional artists and printmakers.
We're looking for a cross-section of work that is created and produced in Leeds, Yorkshire and the north of England: original art, prints and ceramics, work that is new, original and created in 2024!
We're also looking for designer-makers who create gifts that are unique and represent their art.
There is no restriction on the type of work, medium or subject matter; all we ask is that it is new (created in 2024) and that it has never been exhibited before.
Exhibition + Gallery Shop: 10 am - 4 pm daily, 7 days a week.
It's free to submit, and the show is free to visit.

It’s a lovely environment, the visitors are very chatty and engage in the art. It can be busy, it can be quiet, there is no telling; we invite artists to bring some art, drawing, painting, work, a book, something to do in case it’s quiet.
