The Pier Arts Centre presents its annual celebration of art and craft by artists and makers who live and work in Orkney.

In early 2015 the Pier Arts Centre will be presenting its bi-annual recent art graduates exhibition, highlighting the work of artists schooled in Orkney who have gained a degree in art, design or architecture.

The exhibition showcases a broad cross section of painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, video and crafts and includes artists with professional backgrounds and others who, without formal study, have discovered the pleasures and challenges that are the rewards of creative activity.

Paying a subscription by standing order helps in reducing administration costs. If you would like to pay by this method, please complete the standing order form. If you would prefer to pay by cash or cheque, please complete the alternative form. Your Details Name: Address:
