English Riviera Winter Open - Preview Days

After a month of virtual activity, the English Riviera Winter Open Exhibition is about to get physical as we look forward to reopening the gallery at the end of Lockdown 2.0!

With over 100 participating artists and 300 works, on December 2nd, this needs to be the first stop on your Christmas shopping trips. This huge collection including one-off original artworks, highly collectible sculpture and unique gifts has something for everyone, whether you're looking small for a stocking filler, or going big for a Christmas treat to yourself.

Opening hours have been extended to make the most of the final weeks before Christmas so you'll be able to join us seven days a week from 10am every day, and to celebrate the first week we'll also be offering you the chance to book exclusive preview sessions with us.

These sessions are by reservation only and are a chance to enjoy the exhibition at a quieter pace with access to the gallery directors and visiting artists.

A limited number of tickets are available per session to meet COVID-Secure restrictions and we ask that all attendees wear a mask as per requirements when visiting a retail outlet.

Exhibition

Our annual winter open show has welcomed hundreds of Devon artists since it first started in 2017 as well as receiving international entries and sales. For the last two events, hosted at the Artizan Collective Gallery on Fleet Walk, we have seen submissions, audiences and sales increase year on year, and we want 2020 to be no different despite the unusual times.

Initially hosted online with a virtual walkthrough available to view via the link below, alongside a dedicated exhibition page where all the work can be viewed, and regular updates via our Facebook and Instagram pages (follow @artizangallery), we are excited to now be opening our doors to the exhibition on 2nd December.

We have around 100 artists taking part and more than 300 works on display showcasing work from established and award-winning artists as well as providing an opportunity for emerging artists to show their work for the first time. This is a selective show and quality of both the 2D and 3D work on display is a testament to the wealth of talent that we have here in the South West.

This will be our final show of 2020 and we very much look forward to welcoming you to it over the coming weeks.
