The Courtyard is offering an opportunity for three emerging artists aged 16 – 25 with a link to Herefordshire to take part in its latest visual arts project.
Cultivate@Courtyard is inviting artists to submit a technically accomplished and resolved piece of artwork or craft, along with supporting evidence in the form of a sketchbook or drawings by Friday, September 1.
From the submissions, three chosen artists will be shortlisted by a panel of judges. They will then be mentored by professional artist Maria Morgan as they work towards producing an exhibition at The Courtyard and Old Mayor’s Parlour Gallery in May 2018 with the overall winner being presented £1000.
David Durant, associate director of The Courtyard says: “We are really excited to be launching Cultivate@Courtyard this summer. At The Courtyard we take great pride in developing new talent by offering opportunities and we can’t wait to see what the selected artists will produce.”
Maria Morgan, Project Co-ordinator, says: “Cultivate@Courtyard is a really exciting project which will support emerging artists to raise their artistic profile and develop skills. Herefordshire is full of creative talent and I am really looking forward to mentoring the three individuals as they prepare for their exhibition.”
Submission is now open for Cultivate@Courtyard. For more information and to download the project pack please visit courtyard.org.uk/visualarts
