Brighton Artists Open Houses

Lots of our Horsham Artist members are taking part in Brighton Artists Open Houses.

An artist’s open house is a home, or sometimes a studio, opened by artists and makers for the public to view their artwork. It’s an excellent opportunity to discover, buy artwork and meet the artists across Brighton and Hove.

Artists open houses came about when local artists rebelled against expensive art gallery representation, displaying their art directly to the public from their own homes.

Open each weekend from 11-5pm – May 7th /8th, 14th /15th, 21/22nd, 28th/29th.

For more information, please head to the the Brighton Artists Open Houses website.
