“Open Up offers a rare chance to explore the creative heart of Sheffield, meeting artists and discovering their work in the spaces where it’s made.”
Sarah Sharp
Service Manager -Culture
Sheffield City Council
“Open up is a brilliant opportunity for artists to connect and share their process, and also invites Sheffield’s communities to discover the vibrant art being made on their doorstep. RivelinCo are delighted to be a regular collaborator with Open Up Sheffield, providing space and support for early career artists to share their art and process with the public – often for the first time. The network and support Open Up provide to the artists makes it a transformative stepping stone in an artist’s career.”
