During the festival artists from all over Brighton & Hove and the surrounding region will be opening their homes and studios to the public, showcasing a diverse selection of artworks and craft in all mediums, from paintings, sculptures, jewellery, homewares, ceramics, textiles and much more. It’s a unique opportunity for the public to meet and buy artworks direct from the artists themselves.
Judy Stevens, Artists Open Houses Festival Director said: “Artists Open Houses are a great and affordable way for artists to exhibit their work, whether established artists or those just setting out on their careers. Artists Open Houses connect artists and makers with an audience of art-lovers, buyers and industry professionals – and is also fun to take part in, exhibiting with your friends in your own home.”
