Eastgate Studio’s annual open exhibition 2024 shines a light on the beautiful town of Beverley. We look forward to viewing the printmaking community’s response to the theme. Of course, Beverley has some iconic buildings: The Minster, St Mary’s Church, The Black Mill and the bandstand. However, the architecture and surrounding countryside also offer a wealth of stimulus. This exhibition is open to all printmakers.
