Plate, Brian Withall, glass artist, 2023
It often takes a brave individual to let strangers into their private spaces. For those willing to learn about what is being made currently – and even just to delight their eyes – there is a wealth of different artists to choose from. This year well over 100 artists have chosen to exhibit using the PAOS banner. Below is a small selection of some of the artists exhibiting on the 8th and 9th of July 2023.
This Saturday and Sunday is the third of this years three Peterborough Artist Open Studio weekends in the PE postcode area.
When people think of art, painting and forming sculptures in clay or resistant materials has been at the fore front of people’s minds for centuries. There is still a hardcore belief in painting, be it on canvas or street walls as a heroic activity. However there is a growing understanding and acceptance of what constitutes art and craft work. PAOS artist members encompass professional practitioners, teachers, students and talented hobbyists of all ages, all are welcome to join in the yearly celebration and throw open their workspaces, vcnues and unique projects to public view and scrutiny.
