The Open Exhibition

Once again Ashbourne Town Hall will provide the backdrop for another exciting display of local artistic talent.  The Ballroom will be transformed into a gallery space during the first week of the Festival in order to exhibit work by talented local artists.  Organisers will follow this display by a two- day exhibition of artwork from local groups, again using the Ballroom space.

The Festival organisers are committed to displaying the very best artwork produced by artists with local affiliations and to this end, some artwork will be hung by invitation, but the vast majority of available space will be reserved for our many talented local artists and art groups.
