Fill the Frame outdoor art exhibition on display at Preston Markets
Blog PrestonAn outdoor art exhibition featuring the work of nine Preston-based artists is on display in the city centre.\n\nThe exciting artworks – featuring photography, images of the city, abstract art and paintings – are on show at Preston Markets. The large-scale images displayed in three unique frames is a crowdfunded project by arts producer Garry Cook.
More about our impact
The environment
We used resuable frames to display the images.
The local economy
People came to Preston Markets to see the images, spending money in local coffee shops, cafes and other market stalls during their visit. People have entered Preston City Centre as tourists, increasing football and spend in local retail outlets.
Arts, culture & heritage
The project has given artists a platform to display their work. The work has had a much bigger audience than an indoor exhibition, due to the large scale images being displayed in a permanently accessible outdoor location.
Activity, health and leisure
Visitors have come in to the city centre and walked to the exhibition, giving them exercise mental health has also been improved by experience the diverse art and by generating pride in the city's creative artists.
