AN auction house is hosting some of the leading new artists in the region at an exhibition and sale entitled Emerging Yorkshire.
Richardson and Smith Auctioneers based in Whitby have got together work by 12 artists with strong local connections for the event over the bank holiday weekend from April 29 to May 1. Auctioneer James Smith said:”The objective was to give a footing to new artists looking for an outlet for their work, rather than simply offering the town’s most established artists.
“We felt it was important that the exhibition had a local flavour and all of the artists featured either live locally or were born in the district and still spend much time here.”
The exhibition can be viewed at the Westcliffe Auction Rooms, Whitby.
