Overview
Delamore
Delamore arts is an annual month-long exhibition that has been running successfully for just over 20 years. It attracts artists and visitors from across the UK with all works selected by a panel of judges to ensure and maintain a high standard of work. Whilst its focus initially was on sculptural works that are placed within the grounds and the house, 2D works have become an important part of the offer and adorn the walls in the main house salon style to compliment a supporting collection of interior 3D works.
Delamore regularly sees repeat visitors for whom this event is part of their arts calendar and many of those visitors come with the intent to buy. There is a café on site so most visitors will spend several hours and fully explore all that is on offer. Proceeds from the exhibition support a designated charity that is selected each year by Delamore.
Artizan
For the month of May, we move to Delamore Estate and support this fantastic annual showcase with our own curated offer. Contemporary British Printmakers and The Kiln Room will provide two unique exhibition additions to this year’s programme, with the rest of the courtyard spaces being used to develop new programming offers including workshops, demonstrations and maker takeovers.
Maker Takeovers Offer
The Stalls is a new offering that will sit alongside the already successful programming that has run from this section of Delamore Arts for several years.
In this new space we are offering fair style stands for individual makers and artists to take on for mid-week and weekend blocks. Each stall is self-contained and can be setup with your own exhibition and display equipment, with electricity provided and general lighting of the block.
