OPEN 25

​

1st - 22nd February

​

We are thrilled to announce the opening of our 7th Annual Open Art Exhibition, once again hosted at our new venue in The Lofts and at Studio 40, Queen Street, Neath.

​

Our annual Open competition welcomes participants from near and far, showcasing a vibrant array of art and craft from artists and makers across Wales and beyond.

​

This competition provides a fantastic opportunity for contemporary artists to explore new works and innovative ideas, merging traditional techniques with creative originality. This year, we were fortunate to receive an exceptional selection of entries, making the judging process quite challenging. 

​

A heartfelt thank you to all our participants; we truly appreciate your engagement and wish you every success in your future artistic endeavours.

​

Many congratulations to this year's winners: First place was awarded to Matt Williams for 'Break in the Storm - Port Talbot Beach,' second place went to Suzanne Callen for 'Here Within,' third place was claimed by Sarah Defriend for 'Sweet and Bitter,' and fourth place, along with this year's 3D award, was given to Myles Mansfield for his remarkable 'Trout' recycled steel sculpture.

​
