The Contemporary Open Exhibition

19/08/2016

Hey guys, Here's a little throwback to when Rachel and Frankie from the TCO 2016 team visited Universities around Kent. Their aim was to speak with students about How and Why to apply for The Contemporary Open Exhibition and get as many people on board as they could.

When speaking to fellow students they gave a short presentation showing the gallery space at Sun Pier House and surrounding locations, the previous TCO exhibitions and possible benefits from showing your work there.

If you are interested in being a part of TCO 2017 then please contact us now for further information and details on the show.

See you soon!
