EXHIBITION AREA
THE
EVENT LOCATION
Art in the Pen is held at Skipton Auction Mart. The pen area is technically an indoor space but you should still cover your stall on an evening. Your application is for an empty space (unless tables are booked) as we do not provide a shell scheme. You have full control over how you set out your space. You are welcome to bring your own tables and display stands.

YOUR
YOUR STATEMENT
This should be written in third person and has a maximum limit of 75 words.
YOUR IMAGES
Images of work only (no logos or collages). It is better to provide well presented images of one piece of work, as opposed to crowded shots of stalls or tables. Well presented work is key to securing a place.
