Art on view

THE 18th Oxton Art Fair will be held this weekend.

The work of 17 artists will feature in the event, held at Williamson Art Gallery & Museum in Birkenhead on Saturday and Sunday (November 19-20), from 10-4pm.

On view will be a variety of original works including painting, photography, printmaking, jewellery, ceramics, mixed-media, woodcraft and textiles during the event.

All of the member-artists and craftspeople live in Oxton.

All the artists taking part exhibit regularly in the North West, some nationally and a few internationally.

A spokesperson for the organisers told the Globe: "Oxton Art Fair has come a long way from its small beginnings in 2004 to 2021, when post-lockdown over 1,000 people chose to visit Oxton Art Fair in just one day.

"We can't wait to celebrate our 18th milestone and we would like to thank everyone for their continued and much-valued support.

"As always, there's something for everyone whether you want to browse, buy, come and chat to the artists about their processes, or simply soak up the sumptuous pre-Christmas atmosphere."
