Description

Artist brief:
We are looking for an exhibition or installation to animate the entire space of the Apthorp Gallery in a creative way that both is inclusive to our audiences and complements our existing programme. We are located in North Finchley and will have family theatre shows in the venue over the Half Term period. The work will need to be engaging for all ages and suit a very busy venue.
