Arts & Festivals in Oswestry

Message from Qube, Oswestry.

Arts and Festivals Free Network Event 14th September at Qube, Oswestry

 

Artists, community and voluntary art organisations and anyone interested in the arts, are invited to attend an Arts and Festivals Network Event on Wednesday 14th September at Qube (Oswestry Community Action), Oswestry from 6.00pm.

 

The event will feature a presentation, artist talk, workshop and opportunity for a pre preview of the Qube Open Art Competition Exhibition;


  • Update on Qube's Programme, including; exhibitions, the launch of Qube Arts Open 2016 and new workshops for and delivered by artists.

  • Artist talk by Keith Maiden, a portrait and figurative painter, who uses an unusual mix of acrylic, ink and graphite in his work.

The talk will explore Keith's journey from winning the 'people's choice' at Qubes Open Art Competition in 2012, to becoming a successful professional artist. Since 2012 Keith's career has taken off with solo exhibitions, commissions and a contract with Washington Green Fine Art Publishers Ltd, who are part of the Halcyon group, along with Castle Fine Art who have 40 high street galleries all over the UK, 6 being in London.

  • Creative Workshop led by Dorothy Harrison. 'The Creative Journey' - Migrating to the 'right brain'. A workshop on the idea of a creative journey, it's risky and totally unpredictable, but so much more fun.

 

Throughout the evening artists will have the opportunity to network and exchange ideas and information.

Refreshments will be available free of charge.
