The Apthorp GalleryThe Apthorp gallery at artsdepot exhibits the work of emerging and established artists in its annual series of eight professional exhibitions. The process of sourcing, selecting, curating and programming exhibitions for the gallery is overseen by Alice Lobb, artsdepot’s Visual Art Programmer, with support from artsdepot’s Artistic Advisory Board. The gallery strives to connect the themes and genres of exhibits with the theatre, dance, music and education programming throughout artsdepot. The gallery is generously supported by the Milly Apthorp Fund. Two exhibitions are annual events: artsdepot Openartsdepot launched the Barnet Open in 2005, exhibiting the work of local artists in the Apthorp Gallery. Re-launched in 2009, artsdepot Open encourages submissions from both emerging and established artists. Work submitted is reviewed and selected by an Advisory Committee, before an exhibition in the summer. New to artsdepot Open is the Milly Apthorp Prize for artists in Barnet. The two most distinguished works submitted by an artist, living, studying or working in Barnet will be awarded a cash prize courtesy of the Milly Apthorp Trust.
