Artists, sculptors and ceramicists at Harrogate College are preparing to stage their first North Yorkshire Open Studios event.
The artists, who are studying for master’s degrees in creative practice, will showcase their work on June 4. Visitors will be able to view and buy items.
North Yorkshire Open Studios gives artists the chance to open their studios, network, and show and sell their work directly to the public over the first two weekends in June.
The artist-led event is run by a voluntary steering group of North Yorkshire based artists.
Dr Annabel Smith, programme manager, MA creative practice at Harrogate College said the event would give many college students the opportunity to showcase their work, adding:
“The NYOS event has grown to become one of the major events in North Yorkshire’s cultural calendar, as well as one of the north’s most prestigious open studios events.
“The college is honoured to be included this year and is highlighting and showcasing work produced by our year 1 and year 2 MA creative practice students.”
The exhibited work will include ceramics, paintings, printmaking and textiles and will be on view to the public in the college’s canteen.
The show takes place at the college, at Hornbeam Park, from 9am to 5pm.
