Artcade is a brand new gallery concept, showing and selling the work of Sheffield’s finest contemporary Artists.
Popular Sheffield hangout spot Forum Arcade will host the venue which will present a dedicated program of new solo exhibitions from a wide range of artists. During these unprecedented times, Artcade will be a welcome support for artists to develop and showcase their creative practice.
Twelve Sheffield artists will work in the space over twelve months, experimenting and expanding their output. All artwork will be available for sale, from original paintings and drawings to prints and reproductions.
The gallery will open on 28th August with ‘Summer of Love’, an exhibition by Sheffield artist Oli Frape. Created against a backdrop of social distancing and a divisive political climate, this brand new collection of works celebrates unity, positivity and openness by using bold colours and optimistic language from the summers of our past.
Public access to Artcade will be every Saturday 10am – 6pm. Keep an eye on Artcade’s Facebook page here for updates.
