Primary’s residents and members will open their studios to the public, offering a behind the scenes look at their creative practices and transforming Primary Open into a vibrant, community led exchange of ideas. The event celebrates the diverse range of artistic approaches within the Primary community.
In addition to open studios, visitors can explore exhibitions, attend an In Conversation talk event alongside the current exhibition, enjoy food and drinks, collect a limited edition ‘collector card,’ and meet the artists. It’s a chance to engage with the artistic community at Primary and begin or expand your own art collection.
