There is currently a new Invitational & Emerging Artist Exhibition at the Bermuda Society of Arts.
Showcasing in their Onions Gallery and Studios A & B are seasoned artists who we have not shown exhibits at the BSoA in some time and have been invited back for a special showcase of their works. Exhibiting at the same time in their Edinburgh Gallery are very talented emerging artists, some exhibiting for the first time. It’s a blending of the two that promises to create a special experience and great place to acquire new art and support local artists.
Opening hours at BSoA are from 10am until 4pm, Monday to Friday and from 10am until 2pm on Saturdays. The exhibition will run until Tuesday, September 26th.
Admission is free, although donations are appreciated, and all are welcome.
