Auto Art – opportunity to see local artwork

Auto Art is the ultimate car boot experience taking place in the Guildhall Car Park in Plymouth this Sunday 18 September 2011 between 9:00am and 1:00pm.

This event will be the first of its kind in the city, offering local people and visitors to Plymouth the opportunity to engage with art in an informal, fun and unique way.

Auto Art is the perfect place to pick up some quirky and original gifts and it is a must for anyone who is serious about art or simply loves collecting beautiful things.

The event comes at a time when the art scene in Plymouth is thriving, with ‘British Art Show 7: In the Days of the Comet’ coming to the city from 17 September to 4 December 2011.

Auto Art is being organised by ArtsMatrix in collaboration with Plymouth College of Art and Plymouth City Centre Company.

Everything exhibited and sold at AutoArt will be original artworks made by enterprising students and professional artists residing in the South West.

Current exhibitors already booked include Katie Lee Interior Textiles, HGT Collective Street Art, Pylon Press Student Publishing and Plymouth Artist Neil Mawdsley.

Refreshments will be available and served from a retro American Airstream caravan serving tea, coffee and bacon butties!
