HIVEArts are once again bringing art to streets of Blackpool.
11 tram stops along Blackpool's Golden Mile filled with large scale works from
22 female photographers.
About
Following on from the very well received HIVEJacked exhibition, which saw the local arts organisation work alongside Blackpool Transport to place local artist’s works into a number of tram stops along the town’s famous promenade, comes the new F/Stop exhibition.
Once again a number of tram stops along the Golden Mile between South and North pier will become home to an open air, free to all art gallery.
F/Stop was an open call commission for photographers who identify as female, from within the FY postcode, and has brought forward a large and diverse collection of work.
Many of the photographers involved have previously worked and exhibited with local community arts groups HIVEArts and Arrested ReDevelopment, with huge and continuing support from HIVEBpl café on Church Street.
HIVEBpl will also be home to 5 pieces which were shortlisted by the judging panel. The
pieces will form the HIVE Five Exhibition, running alongside the sea front exhibition, adorning the walls with images in the same large scale format as the tram stop works.
The exhibition will be in place along the Golden Mile and in HIVEBpl café from April 1st to May 1st 2021
