Call for artists
The Old Workshop: Call for Workshop Proposals Delamore Arts 2025
Artizan Collective & Delamore Arts are seeking proposals from artists and workshop delivers to activate their newest creative space, The Old Workshop.
Delamore
Delamore arts is an annual month-long exhibition that has been running successfully for just over 20 years. It attracts artists and visitors from across the UK with all works selected by a panel of judges to ensure and maintain a high standard of work. Whilst its focus initially was on sculptural works that are placed within the grounds and the house, 2D works have become an important part of the offer and adorn the walls in the main house salon style to compliment a supporting collection of interior 3D works.
Delamore regularly sees repeat visitors for whom this event is part of their arts calendar and many of those visitors come with the intent to buy. There is a café on site so most visitors will spend several hours and fully explore all that is on offer. Proceeds from the exhibition support a designated charity that is selected each year by Delamore.
Artizan
For the month of May, we move to Delamore Estate and support this fantastic annual showcase with our own curated offer. Contemporary British Printmakers and The Kiln Room will provide two unique exhibition additions to this year’s programme, with the rest of the courtyard spaces being used to develop new programming offers including workshops, demonstrations and maker takeovers.
Offer
The Old Workshop is a new offering that will sit alongside the second year of Contemporary British Printmakers and follows on from the success and popularity of demonstrations and ‘have a go’ sessions that were run as part of this during 2024.
Now with a dedicated separate space for such activity, we are hoping to curate a mix of half day, whole day, multi day, and drop-in activity across the full month, for audiences to get involved with, and we are seeking proposals from artists and groups to deliver to a captive arts audience.
• Opportunity to deliver workshops as part of one of Devon’s best loved arts events
• Unique workshop offer for audiences to include access to Delamore Arts annual exhibition programme
• Option to submit multiple event proposals, sessions and various length workshops
• No charge for space hire
• On site facilities to offer included lunch to participants
• All booking and ticketing centrally managed as part of the events programming
• Promotion through Delamore Arts and Artizan Collective channels including on the Delamore Arts website
• Opportunity to sell your work or participation in other workshop activity with no commission fees
• Support to take payments if required at a low 5% rate
Key Dates:
• Delamore Dates: 1st – 31st May
• Deadline for Proposals: 14th January
• Confirmation of Success: 16th January
• Deadline for Final Workshop Copy if Successful: 30th January
