BREAKOUT!
NEW Exhibition: Submit your portraits!

The team at Quay Arts is thrilled to announce a NEW exhibition which is open to all to join
in… a revival of the ‘My Millenium’ exhibition from twenty years ago.  

In 2020 we are inviting every Islander, of any age, to submit a self-portrait, in any medium, the only restriction being that it must be 10cm x 10cm, as the original portraits were. We want to make the BREAKOUT  Exhibition bigger and better than before, so we need YOU! 

As a self-financed charity, Quay Arts relies on income from our trading activities to bring the arts to Islanders and we have set ourselves a target of £20,000 so that we can still be here for you when our own Breakout happens.

We are asking for a donation of £1 from every person or household that takes part. If you can’t donate, we’d like you to enter anyway, just for the fun of it!

We don’t know when we will be able to put up the exhibition but we are really looking forward to welcoming you to Quay Arts for this celebration of the spirit of our Island community.

We want to collect as many self-portraits as possible. All we need you to do is fill in
the entry form, upload your portrait and send it in! We will be displaying a selection on an online gallery each week, up until when we are able to display the exhibition in our West Gallery.

Can't thank you all enough for the ongoing support to the Quay. Without Isle of Wight Festival taking place this year, we lose a big part of our funds raised at the Kashmir Cafe tent. So please if you can show your support by watching the video with friends, donating your money that would of been spent on cherry beer, or even buy yourself a cool tee! it's truly appreciated.

Isolation Row Folk Festival
A fundraiser event for Quay Arts

We are super excited for the Isolation Row Folk Festival. Our venue might be closed at present, but this isn’t stopping local folk singers John Hacker and John Bentley. Since the lock down a weekly folk club has been running on Zoom and now the organisers are planning a 2 day Folk Festival later this month on Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st May.

Called the Isolation Row Folk Festival it will feature some of the finest local performers, as well as a few mainland guests. It will run from 2-5pm on each day. The event is being held as a fundraiser for Quay Arts.

Keep in touch with developments by searching on Facebook for “Isolation Row Virtual Folk Festival.” To find out more please like the Facebook Page.
