Oldham artists are being invited to participate in an event showcasing creative talent.

Oldham Open is returning to Gallery Oldham on September 20 and will run until November 23.

In previous years, the exhibition has displayed close to 300 pieces, with artwork spanning from drawings, photographs, and ceramics to textiles.

All the exhibited artworks will be crafted by Oldham artists.

Councillor Peter Dean, the cabinet member for thriving communities and culture, said: "If you live in Oldham then this is your chance to show your work to fellow Oldhamers and visitors from further afield.

"The Oldham Open is all about celebrating the creativity and talent we have in the borough, by showcasing work by a wide range of artists with different interests."

Visitors will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite artwork, and the most popular piece will win the People’s Prize.

The event also offers a chance for enthusiasts to buy a gift for an art lover.

Artwork submissions, accompanied by a completed entry form, can be made from September 7 until September 9 at the Gallery Oldham reception desk, between 10am and 4pm.

The participants with special requirements need to contact the gallery by September 6 for installation discussions.
