Join us on Friday August 28 for the Opening Party of this year’s Perennial, Haarlem Artspace’s annual exhibition celebrating the artists who make up the growing creative community around the gallery.
Selected by an independent panel, Perennial brings together over 100 artists working across a wide range of disciplines, backgrounds and approaches. The exhibition places artists side by side whose paths might not otherwise have crossed, creating space for new conversations and connections.
Perennial is about more than the work on the walls. It brings together artists from Wirksworth with those working further afield, providing a chance to meet, exchange ideas and build relationships that continue beyond the exhibition. By connecting artists, audiences and the gallery, it helps foster the relationships and networks from which future collaborations can grow.
The Opening Party on Friday 28 August (and the Wrap Party & Perennial Awards on Sunday 20 September) are central to that ambition. They’re not simply celebrations of the exhibition, but occasions for artists, visitors and supporters to spend time together, start conversations and get to know one another. With this in mind, we are fortunate that Haarlem Artspace Gallery is located above The Feather Star Ale House—literally the world’s greatest pub.
We look forward to welcoming you to this year’s Perennial exhibition and celebrating the artists at the heart of Haarlem Artspace.
