Artists Making an Exhibition of Themselves!

Coming soon…

Artists Making an Exhibition of Themselves!

Saturday 1st October 2011, from 6pm to 9pm.

Artists Making an Exhibition of Themselves (or AMET) is a special evening of artists demonstrations, in association with the annual Artworks exhibition at Blackthorpe Barn.

AMET is a special evening event when some of our Artworks artists set-up mini working studios in front of their work in the Artworks exhibition at Blackthorpe Barn, to demonstrate the media, materials & techniques used in their art, ready to answer any questions that visitors to the exhibition may have about their art. It’s like visiting ‘open studios’ but it’s all under one roof!

The atmosphere is always bustling, creative & very inspiring – and refreshments are also available in the Artworks cafe.

The Artworks AMET evening is 
on Saturday 1st October 2011
 from 6pm to 9pm, at Blackthorpe Barn, Rougham, Suffolk – a special date in the Artworks diary!

This special evening event is sponsored by The Curwen Press.
