ArtSpace art fair is off to a new venue
THE local art group ArtSpace Loughborough’s annual art fair is on the move.
The art fair which ran for 10 years in Woodhouse Eaves Village Hall is relocating this autumn to Loughborough.
This year the event will take place over the weekend of October 26-27 at the Rosebery Community Centre, in Storer Road.
With 11 members taking part, the group will be exhibiting many art forms include paintings, drawings, ceramics, textiles, photography, fine art prints, collage and digital prints.
The group will also be joined by six guest artists who have been specially selected to compliment the work of the group.
A spokesperson for the group said: “Do come and join us - it is the perfect place to find an original, unique work of art by a professional artist at an affordable price.
“Many of the artists will be attending the event in person, so it is also an excellent opportunity to meet them and discuss their work.”
All of the works will be for sale with prices starting at £2 for an original handmade card; limited edition prints from £25; and many original pieces being priced under £100.
Doors are open from 10am to 5pm both days. Entry is free.
Handmade cakes and refreshments will be also be available, the proceeds of which will be donated to the British Legion Poppy Appeal.
Last year more than £100 was raised and the group are hoping to top this figure and will be baking furiously to ensure a range of delectable bakes are there for your enjoyment.
