What’s On

There’s a last chance to see this fantastic art exhibition on 25 and 26 November

Two distinctive artists tackle the subject of the landscape, responding together and in their own ways in an exciting new joint show based on drawing.

John Creighton lives in Appleton le Moors, creating artwork that explores the landscape of Ryedale and the North York Moors. Simon Crawford is a painter based in Knaresborough, well known for his innovative use of colour.

Drawn Together is rooted in two Yorkshire landscapes, Ryedale and Nidderdale, sharing rural subject matter including meandering rivers and rocky limestone crags.

Together, the two artists have produced work out of doors and within their studios, enjoying each other’s company, looking closely, and exploring what the landscape means to them today.

Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 November, 10am – 4pm
