🎨 GO! Artists – Oldham Art Fair 🎨

To every artist, maker, volunteer and visitor, thank you. You truly made our second fair a brilliant day!

We loved seeing Gallery Oldham filled with such wonderful artwork, creativity and community spirit. It was fantastic to see so many people come along to discover and support our talented local artists and makers.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the event happen, and to @galleryoldham for their continued support. Thanks also to @oldhamcommunityradio for joining us and chatting with our exhibitors and @jimfromoldham for supporting our event.

We’re so proud of what we’ve achieved together and hope this continues to grow into something special for Oldham’s creative community.

At our “Friends Only” event on Thursday, four exhibitors from the Oldham Open gave details all about their work.

Philip Hughes told us all about his work, a portrait of David Hockney. Lindsay Pockert gave a very moving and personal background to her work “Let it Pour”. FOGO member Gouranga Gupta then talked about his work “Circe”. Finally, we learned more about another FOGO’s member’s work, “Cotton Town Comrade” by Lee Nolan. Unfortunately, Lee couldn’t make the evening so Chairman Roger Hindle gave the presentation on his behalf.
