Artspace members Jo Sheppard and Susan West are also members of the Leicester Society of Artists and are taking part in their annual exhibition at the New Walk Gallery in Leicester which continues until 9th January 2016.
The curation and hanging teams have done a fantastic job (even the babies were quiet, letting their mums help) – why not visit the gallery and see for yourself?
The exhibition runs until 27th June, 9-5 Monday-Saturday closed Sundays
Meet the Artspace artists exhibiting their work in their latest exhibition ‘Beyond Words’ at the Sock Gallery, Loughborough Town Hall
Our new exhibition, Beyond Words, will be opening at the Sock Gallery, Loughborough Town Hall, on Friday 15th May. The exhibition will run until 27th June, Monday through Saturday, 9am – 5pm; closed Sunday.
You are welcome to meet the artists at the Sock Gallery on Saturday 16th May between 1pm and 3pm.
Congratulations to Jo Sheppard and both her children for getting into the Leicester open at the Newarke House Museum
Jo Sheppard, Sally Reayer and Susan West have been successful in getting their work accepted in The Rutland Open
Entry to the gallery space is free.
The Loughborough art trail ‘Art This Way’ will be held over the weekend of 5th and 6th of July (from 11am to 6pm). 6 houses and gardens will be displaying the work of 20 artists and craftspeople in the Forest Road area of Loughborough.
It is a wonderful opportunity for people to see a variety of artwork and meet the artists, away from the traditional art gallery. From well-known, established artists Helen Rhodes and Barry D Bulsara, and many others, there is something to suit all tastes and pockets. Three Artspace members will also be taking part- Nita Rao, Jo Sheppard and Anna Michalska.
There will also be three venues selling drinks and delicious homemade cakes – the proceeds of which will be going towards the Charnwood Scouts Japan World Scout Jamboree. Each scout needs to raise £3500 in order to take part on the trip.
Venues are 204 , 232 and 247 Forest Road, 8 and 33 Highfields Drive and 16 Shepherds Close and will be clearly signposted on the day. They are all within walking distance of each other.
This will be the third year of running the Art This Way art trail in Loughborough, last year saw around 300 people visit over the weekend and we raised over £300 for the Teenage Cancer Unit at Leicester Royal Infirmary.
Hope you can make it.
