The Great Big Art Exhibition; get involved!

We are excited to announce that we are a partner of  THE GREAT BIG ART EXHIBITION led by Firstsite Colchester and supported by the Plus Tate Network and Arts Council England!

Whether you are a professional artist, enthusiast, dabbler or complete first-timer, you can help unleash art, expression and creativity across the UK by creating your own artwork and sharing.

Artworks can be made of anything at all. You can work on your own, as a household, or devise collaborations with your friends, work colleagues, team members, tower block, street, school, or place of worship. Anything goes!

Download the free activity pack from the Firstsite website here to find out how to get involved. It will tell you how to make, display and share your artwork. It also provides inspiration from brilliant artists including Sonia Boyce, Jeremy Deller, Ryan Gander, Antony Gormley, Anish Kapoor, Tai Shani, and David Shrigley, as well as  artworks from major UK collections including the Ashmolean, the British Museum, The Courtauld, National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, National Museums Liverpool, The National Galleries of Scotland, the Royal Academy and V&A.
