WALFORD MILL CRAFTS
Apply to exhibit with us
The Mills’ Exhibition Gallery is situated on the mezzanine floor in the centre of the Mill. Approximate dimensions of the gallery space are 6.5m x 4.5m x 2.8m high. We love to keep a varied programme throughout the year and host exhibitions featuring art and craft from local artists, makers and creative groups.
The space offered sits within the centre of the Mill, alongside the oldest part of the building. The exhibition area can be adapted to display items as wished by the artist/maker or creative community, either by borrowing a selection of plinths and stands from the Mill events collection, or by hanging artwork around the brick wall on Picture wires.
Like the education room, the exhibition gallery has full disability access with a lift providing disabled access from the ground floor. Like other events hosted at the Mill, the artists, creative makers etc are expected to advertise their exhibition through their own networks and social media, and a selection of pictures and information provided by them will be shared on the Mills’ website. Regular visitors to the Mill keep a close eye on the Mills’ website and return again and again to visit new people and see their creations. Our exhibitors are asked to set up the display prior to opening times – utilizing the exhibition room set up guide.
The 2023 rental for the exhibition gallery differs according to time of the year. Prices start from £170 for the Month (Jan – March), £420 (Apr – May) and £630 Jun-Dec. Bookings can also be made for a 2 week period; £90, £210, £315 respectively, however the general booking practice for the exhibitors is for a month period to maximize the footfall into the mill and to allow sufficient time for visitors at the Mill to come and see the exhibition and return with friends and relatives.
We hope to see you in the gallery soon!
