belfastprintworkshopgallery

belfastprintworkshopgallery are throwing open their doors for Belfast's first ever Culture Night! Inspired by Culture Nights held annually in Copenhagen, Reykjavik, Dublin and other European cities - venues, artists studios, galleries, historic buildings, cultural organisations, churches and others, will open their doors for a magical nighttime experience and Belfast Print Workshop will be slap bang in the middle of this exciting event!

belfastprintworkshop located in Cotton Court opposite the Merchant Hotel will be open to the public from 7pm to 9pm on Friday 25th September. We will be exhibiting 'The Big Draw' an exhibition formally being shown in Victoria Square, for those of you who have been unable to get down to see this enticing exhibition now is your chance! BPW have a considerable amount of talented artists as members and they have each been asked to showcase a print along side their preliminary sketches allowing the viewer to gain a greater insight into how these gifted printmakers create such emotive artworks. This exhibition takes place in conjunction with The National Campaign For Drawing which explores the therapeutic values of drawing and encourages those who think they cant draw to have a go. It connects generations and communities, showing that drawing can be an enjoyable public activity as well as a private passion.

FREE DRAWING WORKSHOP @ BPW COTTON COURT SATURDAY 10TH OCTOBER 12 - 4PM
