The GAP Arts Project is looking forward to welcoming visitors back into our gallery for our new exhibition, Self, Isolated. 

​

This exhibition presents a diverse collection of self-portraits created during the coronavirus lockdown in response to our open call-out that began in May. With over 50 pieces in many different styles, mediums and approaches, it invites audiences to reflect upon our collective experiences of the times we’re living through and the power of the self-portrait as a means of artistic expression.

 

​

The exhibition is open by appointment only. Current viewing slots are available on Tuesdays and Saturdays at the following times: 

​

12 - 1pm 

1:30 - 2:30pm 

3- 4pm

 

This 1 hour slot allows your group plenty of time to see the exhibition and our team time to clean up before the next booking. 

 

The exhibition is free to visit but booking is essential. One group at a time (from the same social bubble) are welcome, up to a maximum of 10 people. Please give 48 hours notice when booking or cancelling.
