ONE of North Yorkshire’s most unusual pop-up art venues – a garden shed – is to showcase local artwork to raise money for charity.

Every year, the garden of Black Hambleton House, in Osmotherley, near Stokesley, becomes the venue for artwork created by emerging and established artists from Osmotherley and the surrounding area.

This year the event, hosted by Robert and Jane Thorniley-Walker, will be taking place between Saturday, May 28 and Monday, May 30 between 10.30am and 4.30pm.

The exhibition will include landscape paintings and mosaics, etchings and other art.

It will raise money for Street Child Africa, which delivers frontline support to destitute children.

Last year’s event raised just under £1,000 for the charity through sales of refreshments, donations and commissions on art sales.

There will be refreshments including cream teas, cakes and local cider available.
