Here is a link to the registration form https://forms.gle/YMrce6temyHvJbgLA
On the morning of Saturday the 20th, between 9.30 and 11am, bring a blank canvas, paper, board etc to the Community Space on the 1st floor in Keynsham Library. You then have until 3pm to return with the artwork. Artists can create as much work as they like but only one per artist can be submitted for assessment.
There will be a selection process from 3pm to 4pm followed by presentation of awards. The artwork will be part of an exhibition in the Libourn Lounge from Tuesday 23rd September until Saturday the 4th of October.
A dozen artworks may be chosen to create GWR style posters to be displayed at Keynsham Railway Station.
We cannot control the weather on the day, but we are really looking forward to meeting you and seeing your artwork. It can be literal, figurative or something inspired by any site, venue or location in Keynsham and the surrounding area.
Good luck and best wishes, Joe.
