The Open Gallery is looking for artworks on the theme of 'Festivities' for an exhibition in December 2024. This exhibition provides artists with a great opportunity to gain greater exposure by exhibiting their work at the Open Gallery in front of a new audience.

The Open Gallery is looking for artists to display 2D and 3D artworks in our Gallery space in Halifax. The exhibition will run from 11 December to 28 December 2024.

Artists are invited to produce and submit original work on the theme of 'Festivities'.

We will accept artwork from any individual artist who lives/works in the UK and will be able to deliver and pick up their artwork to/from the gallery.

Any two-dimensional or 3D artwork on the theme of 'Festivities' can be submitted through curatorspace.com.

The work can be in any media: painting, sculpture, photography, textile, jewellery, artists' books, mixed media, etc.

To Apply:

• Free to apply. If accepted, there will be a participation fee of £40 per artist.
