The Shoosmith Gallery is delighted to be taking part as a host venue for Northants & Rutland Open Studios 2026, welcoming four local artists to the gallery at Delapré Abbey this September.

Bringing together the work of Angela Hooton, Carrie Yuen, Edward Ikin and Jamie Poole, the exhibition explores a shared connection with the natural world through a diverse range of styles and media.

Their work will be exhibited alongside the gallery’s permanent collection of Shoosmith watercolours, offering visitors the opportunity to enjoy both contemporary local art and this important collection.

The exhibition runs from 4–30 September 2026 at The Shoosmith Gallery, Delapré Abbey, Northampton.

Entry and parking are free, and all four artists’ works are available to purchase.

We hope you’ll join us to discover and celebrate the creativity of artists working in Northamptonshire and the surrounding area, alongside the permanent Shoosmith collection.

Opening hours:
Tuesday–Friday: 10am–4pm
Saturday: 10am–3pm
