The annual English Riviera Winter Open Exhibition returns for another year to round off 2022 in a celebration of Torbay’s creative and cultural coastline. Hosted at Artizan Collective Gallery on Fleet Walk, the exhibition sits alongside this year’s Bay of Lights Illumination Trail which goes from the seafront and right past the exhibition’s front door.

The six-week exhibition runs right through the festive period up until Christmas Eve showcasing contemporary works from some of the South West’s best-known artists. With a range of original art, innovative sculpture, jewellery, ceramics and greetings cards, the exhibition is supporting 150+ artists and makers, giving audiences the opportunity to simply enjoy viewing the collection from Devon creatives, or explore Torbay’s biggest local and independent offer this Christmas for unique gifts at every budget.

This year, the exhibition also supports entries from nine emerging student artists with a range of photography, sculpture and original paintings from Torbay schools. The work of these talented young people sits alongside that of South West Academicians, Royal Academy and Royal West of England Academy selectees, making the event one of Devon’s most significant showcases for discovering emerging and professional artists, and a great opportunity to support local this Christmas.

The exhibition runs from November 12th to December 24th
