Art in the Park 2024 – Call out for artists!

Would you like to have your art work displayed in Rowntree Park this summer?

Our popular Art in the Park exhibition is back for 2024. We are looking for York based/related artists who’d like to submit work for this exhibition.

Artists are asked to register interest using the online form. There is more information on the project and technical info here.

Art in the Park has been incredibly well received by the local community and park users since it started in 2021. Artists have also feedback that they’ve loved being involved in the project. We had a range of styles and approaches including mix media, painting, textiles, printing and more! Artists involved over the last few years have included Adele Karmazyn, Leon François Dumont, Elliot Harrison, Emma Feneley, Trish Fletcher, Becki Harper and many more!

Art for 2024 should be based on the loose theme of ‘pollinators’ – which is more simple than it may initially sound! Through 2024 we are celebrating the work our gardening volunteers do in helping biodiversity in Rowntree Park, so we’d like the art in someways to reflect this – this may just be showcasing plants/trees/flowers in someway in your art, or perhaps insects that help pollinate. Art including ‘iconic’ images of the park are always popular, and it truth it would be hard for your art not to fir the theme in someway! More info in the information for artists.

The deadline for submissions of the final pieces is by 14th of June 2024. The work will be displayed in the centre from summer 2024 to spring 2025.
