Littlehampton Museum OPEN 2022 is back with amateur and professional artists interpreting the theme Hope

Launched on Saturday, September 24, this is the 9th Littlehampton Museum OPEN and visitors can view the range of artworks until Wednesday, November 23.

Amateur and professional artists of all ages from the Sussex area were invited to create work on this year’s chosen topic, Hope.

As ever, people of all artistic abilities and mediums were welcomed, giving anybody the chance to create artwork which could be included in the final exhibition.

The museum team had the hard task of selecting artwork to be displayed from the range of pieces that arrived, aiming to show not only a representation of all mediums but also people’s wide-ranging variations on the theme.

The result is a diverse medley of creations, promising an interesting and thought-provoking display.

Billy Blanchard-Cooper, chair of Littlehampton Town Council’s community resources committee, said: “It’s great to have the OPEN back for 2022. It’s fascinating to see so many people’s different interpretations of Hope.”

Littlehampton Museum is at Manor House, Church Street, Littlehampton, and admission is free.
