Rarities is CLOSED for submissions




Rarities 2011 is now closed for submissions. There's been a huge demand for places and we've had to close 3 weeks early.




One of our last entries was 'Don't Blame Me' by Gwen Black (left). Number 253 in the exhibition.




If you've missed out this time and havent got your name on our mailing list, then, email me Alban at openfridge@googlemail.com . I'll be able to let you now when the next opportunity becomes available. I usually let the mailing list/ past exhibitors know a few days before the national/international 'call to artists'.




If you'd like to come along to St Leonards and Hastings to see what its all about and pick up some contemporary art for FREE then we'll be at the Pier gates from 4pm onwards, 27th August. The magnets get picked up quickly by hungry collectors so dont be late.
