Grejczik Gallery’s First Open Exhibition: Postcard exhibition on the theme of the AMMONITE

Open to all artists!
Enter your postcard sized original art – 4″x6″ on any flat surface (some depth acceptable, for example ceramic, collograph, carving, etc.)
All mediums, all ages, all levels welcome.

 

Grejczik Gallery is a micro-gallery on the Yorkshire coast featuring pop-up exhibitions about art & science.

Past exhibitions have included artwork about light, geology, human physiology, monster anatomy, and stars. Artist owned and run our goal is to promote artists who think science is cool! Scarborough is part of the Yorkshire "Jurassic Coast" and home to the country's first geology museum - The Rotunda. This naturally inspired the theme for our very first open exhibition.
