To showcase this talent, from 31st July – 26th August 2023, Open Door’s gallery walls will be filled with work from a breadth of people in the Open Door family. Featuring drawings, pottery, needle felting, crochet, paintings – the list goes on…

To further exhibit the vast creativity that goes on at Open Door, tutors and hirers are laying on a variety of free workshops throughout the month – they are all suitable for children and adults, and all free of charge – a brilliant way to try new things, or keep the kids occupied this summer!

Sarah Osborne, Exhibition Manager at Open Door said:

“We’re so fortunate to be a creative hub within Berkhamsted, and we want more people to experience all that there is to offer at Open Door. Doing something creative has so many benefits to adults and children alike, so we look forward to our community experiencing something new, and perhaps taking up a new hobby! A huge thank you to all of our artists, tutors, volunteers, hirers and pupils for making this exhibition happen, and giving their time to run workshops and classes.”

The exhibition runs from 31st July – 26th August 2023, and is open Monday – Friday 10:30-3:30 & Saturday 10:30-1pm. Hot and cold drinks, homemade cakes, snacks and light lunches are available in Open Door’s new look donations café – see the menu at www.opendoorberkhamsted.co.uk/community-food
