Stars Shimmering in the Dark art show is inspired by hope. Over the past few months, the artists created beautiful artworks inspired by hope, what it means to them, and what they are hopeful for. To explore the concept of hope, they looked to nature and its changing seasons, from dark winter to brighter spring days. The art on display celebrates their favourite things, representing their joy and dreams.
You will be able to purchase cards and prints at the opening. Snacks and drinks will also be available! Please note that all art will be for sale but will need to stay up for the duration of the show. Arrangements can be made for collection or drop-off afterwards.
