Hello

GAN meets Creative Sark

Guernsey Art Network

Guernsey Art Network (GAN) is a Registered Charity, (CH555) set up by volunteers who are all locally based artists. Our Patron is The Lieutenant-Governor - Lieutenant General Richard Cripwell CB, CBE

We aim to help promote artists who live and work in Guernsey and the Bailiwick, making art accessible to everyone. We do this by organising exhibitions, workshops, talks, pop up shops and much more.

If you are an artist in the Bailiwick and would like an artist profile page, please get in touch.

Upcoming Exhibitions and Events

unnamed
 GAN and Sula Gallery are excited to announce our next joint exhibition from 8th-29th of July.
If you're taking part in the exhibition please have your artwork labelled up, with your name, title, price and media, and be ready to hand in on Saturday 5th July from 10am-5:30pm.
A reminder that it's entirely up to you how you choose to interpret the theme 'life', whether that's with a still life, life drawing, a lively pub/town centre, or nature's wonderful wildlife.
As always you can enter up to 3 pieces. £2 entry per artwork and the winner from the public vote at the end of the exhibition gets the entry money as a prize.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us. We can't wait to see what you come up with!

Skillshare Sessions

An Introduction to Willow with Rae Bearder

Tuesday 3rd June 6-8pm

Meet at Guernsey Chamber of Commerce, Business Development Centre Market Buildings GY1 1HE, Guernsey

In this session, you will learn how to prepare and use different types of willow to make a platter or trivet. We start by making a simple wreath, then weave the centre of the platter before using the willow to add tension to the platter, strengthening the structure. The final product can be used in the kitchen, or hung on the wall as a decorative piece.

If you have sharp secateurs, please bring them along as these would be extremely useful.

Please note that access is from the door in Fountain Street and that the inner street will be closed at this time.

With thanks to Guernsey Arts for their support and sponsorship.

Guernsey Chamber of Commerce Rolling Exhibition

Monday - Friday 9am-4pm

We're delighted to feature Louise Hill as our latest artist in our rolling exhibition at the Guernsey Chamber of Commerce Headquarters.

Louise is exhibiting a collection of her collages, each piece begins with a full acrylic underpainting, from there Louise searches for different colours and patterns in the pages of magazines. She tears out the elements and layers them on to her paintings.

Want to Host a Skillshare Session?

If you are interested in running your own workshop we would love to hear from you. Any type of creative practice goes - knitting, painting, drawing, sculpture, abstraction, realism the list goes on! We cannot keep running these amazing workshops without Artists to facilitate them (and the wonderful attendees).

The artists running the events are paid for their time and costs of materials are covered.

Even if you’re interested but have some questions before committing, feel free to email gan@gan.org.gg and we can discuss further. Ultimately, Artists, GAN needs you!
