The People's Art Fair encompasses a group exhibition, performances, creative workshops & activities. Open to artists, makers, photographers, painters, sculptors and creatives of all flavours, the People's Art Fair acts as a celebration of culture and expressive art. Aiming to break down financial barriers to the art world, it is free to exhibit in the show (sign up here) - and free to visit of course!
Most of the artworks are available to buy, along with prints, cards, badges, stickers and other smaller bits, and the bar will be open for soft drinks, hot drinks and locally sourced beer, cider & wine.
Want to be part of the exhibition? Visit prsc.org.uk/paf by Mon 13 Apr to sign up as an exhibiting artist.
