Gallery 8 Art Exhibition

We are delighted to announce IMAGINE: the Bryanston Art Exhibition 2024, taking place from 8 to 13 January 2024 at the prestigious Gallery 8 on Duke Street, London, SW1Y 6BN.

As a valued member of our community, we cordially invite you to participate in this extraordinary showcase of creativity and inspiration.

This year's theme is ‘Imagine’. Imagination has always been the wellspring of creativity and the most profound artworks often come from the depths of our wildest imaginings. With 'Imagine', we aim to explore this uncharted territory of the mind, showcasing how diverse and boundless the imagination can be when manifested through the medium of art.
