An annual tradition, the 34th Annual Despard Gallery Summer Show presents new works from our talented artists stable, showcasing a variety of mediums and themes. Not only does the exhibition provide a visual taster of the year to come, it also acts as a platform to introduce some new faces. In association with the Creative School of Arts and Media, we awarded the second annual Despard Gallery NEXT award, which recognises the talents of a recent graduate by providing an opportunity to exhibit new work, this year’s winner was Ellyn Anderson.
Highlights include new select works by Maggie Jeffries, Zoe Grey, Sam Field, Lorraine Biggs, Penny Burnett, Jo Chew, Grace Garton, Lisa Garland, Todd Jenkins, Jeff Mincham, Anne Morrison, Michael Nay, Jenny Orchard and Leah Thiessen.
