Craven Arts House is hosting the exhibition Common Ground

The exhibition Common Ground is now at Craven Arts House

Skipton's Craven Arts House is hosting the exhibition Common Ground, featuring the work of 20 local textile artists in two groups, Gathered Threads and Textilia 3.

Based at 55 Otley Street, the exhibition is now open Wednesday to Saturday until the 9th November.

The opening evening is today, Friday 18th November, between 5pm to 8pm.

A spokesperson for Craven Arts said:

"This exhibition is from two groups of textile artists, Gathered Threads and Textilia 3.  We have all produced new work to the same theme – ‘common ground’ – but have interpreted it in our own ways, both as the two groups, and as individual artists.

"Textilia 3 have used pieces from a single blanket as the common background for their separate framed pieces; Gathered Threads’ larger scale works, comes from our common background as students together.

​"Despite our different outcomes, the works started from similar inspirations; shared spaces, loves, histories and humanities"

Open Wednesday - Saturday, 11am to 4pm, between 16th October and 9th November.

Entry is free.
