Goole Museum call for artwork for 2022 Open Art Exhibition

Goole Museum is inviting entrants from in and around Goole to submit artwork for its popular 2022 Open Art Exhibition.

The exhibition, which is in its eighth year, celebrates the creativity of local amateur and professional artists and provides an exciting opportunity for members of the community to display and sell their artwork.

Work will be showcased to the public between 9 April and 18 June.

Previous exhibitions have seen a fascinating array of artwork, including impressive paintings and photography. The museum also welcome textiles, as well as sculptures and ceramics.

This year’s exhibition is the first under new museum curator, Dr Alex Ombler.

Dr Ombler said: “I’m very excited to welcome local artists to submit their artwork for the 2022 Open Art Exhibition at Goole Museum.
