The Horsebridge is currently looking for young artists aged 16 years old and under to enter works in our art exhibition this October. Horsebridge Prize Giveaway for Young Artists The Horsebridge is offering some amazing prizes to under 16’s as part of its forthcoming exhibition for young artists this October. Two works will be selected from the exhibition to be used for two Horsebridge programme front covers in the following seasons. The Horsebridge programme has a print run of 8,000 and is distributed across the local region. Other prizes include art materials, provided and sponsored by local businesses. Places are limited so we suggest filling out an entry form sooner rather than later. Actual work does not have to be submitted until closer to the time. We anticipate a busy show over a two-week period from hopefully two hundred plus young artists! The A2 Open is an opportunity for young people to exhibit their work in a professional gallery environment and be part of one of the biggest exhibitions in Whitstable this year! The exhibition begins with an opening night where all the artists taking part and the local press are invited. Please pass the word of the A2 show on to anyone else who you think might be interested in taking part.
