The Derbyshire Makers are thrilled to be taking part in Derbyshire Open Arts 2022!

Derbyshire Open Arts promotes an annual art event at the end of May.

Artists and crafts people throughout Derbyshire open their studios to the public, giving visitors an opportunity to see the breadth of art that is created in Derbyshire, to meet the creators and to purchase or commission works direct from the maker.

The Derbyshire Makers are proud to exhibit as a group this year at The Whitworth Centre, Darley Dale, .

We have 11 extremely talented Makers and Artists exhibiting their work in the stunning Brunel Room at The Whitworth Centre, each with their own separate exhibition space. Come along, view their work and have a chat with them them.

This year our Makers are:

Amanda McConnell Photographic Artist, Vicky Prince Art, Andrea Hytch Art, Brush and Strokes by Shadow, Christine Jones Printmaker, Diana Green Art, PyroCrafty, Julie Leggett Art, Sharon’s Studio Art, Ruby Holmes Ware and Steph Jansen Fine Felt.

The Whitworth Centre is an accessible venue with car parking, stunning grounds and a cafe.

Derbyshire Open Arts continues to be funded entirely by artists' subscriptions and is run by volunteers. It is a formally constituted organisation which exists solely for its members who are artists, artisans, arts organisations, galleries and those with an interest in the arts in Derbyshire.
