2. Hope GalleyCurated exhibition of work from a selection of artists with a strong response to nature.
"As a gallerist I am usually drawn to art that makes me feel something. A gentle blowing of cotton grass in the breeze, a sunset to close your eyes and breathe into, the bleakness of the moors and their endless of nothing and yet so much. So, I am lucky to have an abundance of nature inspired artwork in my gallery in Hebden Bridge, by amazing artists, some local to Yorkshire, some nationwide. Please do come and look at the work I've curated for Open Space 70 festival." Caroline Gillatt Hebble House, Old Gate, HX7 6EN | What3Words: aimed.thigh.variously
