Mending Workshop
Open House festival 12 - 20 September
Laura Villares House curates a group show bringing together women artists who create alongside, with, about and around motherhood. Works will explore questions about becoming/ being/ not being/ or losing a mother, and the artists’ responses to these experiences. Mothering is in itself a creative act. The exhibition also aims to offer insights into a range of ways that women maintain or develop their creative practice inspired by and along with family life.
As well as visiting the show you can join us for a Mending Workshop and two Family Workshops.
Garage Gallery is proud to be part of the 2026 Open House Festival, which runs 12 - 20 September. See link opposite for details of other venues in our area.
