Discover the wealth of artistic talent in Sefton
The Sefton Open is an annual exhibition celebrating the creativity and artistic talent across the borough. In 2022 The Atkinson welcomes the return of the exhibition into their galleries, as 2020 and 2021 were presented online.
The exhibition features artworks from individual artists and local groups, including painting, print, ceramics, photography and textiles.
The Atkinson’s longstanding partner, Southport Palette Club, have selected the work from individual artists for the Sefton Open. The club was formed in 1921 to champion the work of local artists and this is their 96th annual exhibition.
Visitors to the exhibition are encouraged to vote for their favourite artwork on display. The artwork with the most votes will be awarded The People’s Prize.
Visitors can also support local artists by investing in their work, most artworks are available to purchase through The Atkinson and the Own Art Scheme.
Join us at The Atkinson for a big celebration of local creativity and artistic talent.
