Thumbs Up artist tour and talk
Event Information
About this event
Join the four artists; Michael Beard, Frances Disley, Harry Meadley, and Lesley Thompson, for a unique insight into the experimentation, research and process behind their new exhibition Thumbs Up.
They will be joined by members of the Castlefield Gallery and Venture Arts teams to give a tour of the display to share how working alongside each other, over an extended project development period, has helped them to find meeting points between their interests and shaped the work presented in the exhibition.
The tour will be relaxed and seating will be provided.
