The People’s Art Fair, an open group exhibition curated by the PRSC, is founded on the principle that together we are greater than the sum of our parts. Acting as a celebration of culture and expressive art, the People’s Art Fair is open to artists, makers, photographers, painters, sculptors and creatives of all shapes and flavours. We know art isn’t just paintings hanging on walls, so the People’s Art Fair often includes an art fair, live music jam sessions, poetry open mic, and all sorts of creative workshops and activities.
