The Knowsley Open Art Exhibition has returned to Kirkby Gallery this week featuring 364 works of art created by people who live, work or study in Knowsley, the largest number of submissions the gallery has ever received.
The exhibition is open to artists of all ages and this year, the borough’s young artists have made a substantial contribution to the show, with almost half of the work created by under 18’s, including pupils from 14 Knowsley schools.
On display there are paintings, prints, photographs, collages and examples of 2D sculpture. There is something for everyone and many of the unique individual works are for sale to the public. Visitors are encouraged to vote for their favourite entries.
We welcome schools and group visits and provide activity space and materials for children to use.
