The People’s Art Fair (PAF) is an open group exhibition curated by the PRSC. 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 incorporates an art market, live music jam sessions, poetry open mic, and all sorts of creative workshops and activities.
This December’s show will feature work by over 70 local artists. Alongside this huge group exhibition we’re also hosting a lunchtime talk, a comedy night, a makers market, a community dinner, and several creative workshops encouraging you to unleash your inner artist!
