The Three Counties Open Art Exhibition is an open-call visual arts exhibition for artists connected to Staffordshire, Cheshire or Shropshire.

The exhibition spans a wide range of mediums in five rooms inside the purpose-built art school building where Arthur Berry studied and taught. From painting to printmaking, drawing, photography, sculpture, textiles, moving image and installation-based works, the breadth of exhibited work shows only a small selection of the creativity of the area.

With a wonderful display of artwork from local schools, several awards made to exhibiting artists including the prestigious Arthur Berry Prize and an exciting exhibition celebrating the work of Arthur Berry, this year’s Three Counties Open Art Exhibition will feel extra special.

Admission: Free. Exact dates to be announced.
