View Nottingham 11th -21st March

An Open Exhibition & Sale (11th March - 21st March) - featuring views of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire from its creative community.

View from the Top presented an exhibition showcasing a diverse and eclectic selection of local artistic talent in our last open exhibition View Nottingham. The aim of the show was to provide opportunities for aspiring artists to exhibit their work and to give the public the chance to view, and purchase exciting new work viewing Nottingham and Nottinghamshire as its subject.

View Nottingham exhibited a wide-ranging look at Nottingham and Nottinghamshire through the eyes and work of its many creatives! It also brought together a range of designer makers in a 'Made in Nottingham' market.

With over 45 artists involved in the exhibition, the exhibition was full with something to please every viewer. Take a look at our blog for the exhibition to find out more.

East Midlands Photo Group 4th - 9th March

Nine local photographers presented for the first time, an exhibition of 120 outstanding images, in both black and white and colour.

The Images on show were of subjects in the UK and worldwide, with an emphasis on each individual presenting his or her work in their own particular style.

Each photograph in this magnificent collection stood proudly on its own, taken together as an exhibition they told a much more complex and subtle story of an ever evolving art form in constant creative response to new technologies, new eras, and new ideas, some of the photographs may have decades separating them, but equally as fascinating is the way each of them reflected its own moment in time and its personal kinship.
