The Ayrshire Collective
Harbour Arts Centre, Irvine - Nov/Dec 2025
This special exhibition celebrated the diverse talents of six amazing artists from Ayrshire, all of whom began their art journeys later in their careers. All came from varied backgrounds and alternative careers, united by their passion for art. This unique show brought together a fantastic mix of styles and creative approaches, reflecting the rich variety of new contemporary 'homegrown’ art.
Alongside the exhibition, all the Artists hosted an exciting Creative Programme giving the opportunity for involvement through workshops, engaging talks, and live demonstrations in the gallery.
