Seasonal colours

The artists: Jo Crowther, Sandra Flitcroft, Vanessa Plews, and Jeanne-Louise Moys.

We're four Otley artists who meet to exchange ideas and celebrate our different approaches. Our artist backgrounds, ways of working and inspiration are varied. Yet, we met through our art lives in Otley and decided to support each other as artists. We held our first exhibition as a group in 2024. We're delighted to be back to share new work with our Otley community in 2025. Join us for a varied and vibrant exhibition of creations in paint, textiles and resin.

The exhibition runs 27 April to 25 May 2025. Join us for our meet the artists exhibition event on Friday 16 May 2025, 6 to 8pm in the Courthouse.
