OPEN04 is group show, open to all artists and makers in Park Royal. A chance to come together and show the work of our area, to meet, collaborate, and celebrate.

Park Royal is home to an emerging and vibrant creative scene. A melting pot of influences with hundreds of artists, makers, and creatives — working amongst the auto parts shops, industrial centres and dark kitchens of Park Royal. The Park Royal Gallery emerged from these artists as a nomadic, floating gallery concept. With the single aim of creating and celebrating art, whether you’re an artist with a studio, working in the joinery next door, or on the factory floor — everyone should be able to show, enjoy, and access art.

OPEN04 is the fourth instalment of the OPEN group show, hosted twice a year. An opportunity for all artists to show their work, without the barriers of curation or theme. A snapshot of the art created in Park Royal.
