May 2020: Jane Palmer & Friends

Following our successful Open House in May 2019 (see below) we were very sad that the public health emergency stopped our plan to open again in May 2020. On the videos page, Jane shows some of the work that would have been on show last May, and some that she created during the lockdown instead.

The guest artists who were due to exhibit with us in May 2020 are:

Jane Palmer and Friends: Open House May 2019

For the first time, Jane and a selected group of artist friends held an Open House in May 2019, and Jane was delighted to win the Artist of the Year award for the Brighton Artists Open Houses festival.  Jane’s studio is at the heart of Brighton’s Fiveways neighbourhood, where the Open House movement was founded in 1981, and we are proud to be members of the Fiveways Trail.
