Pastels Today 2009: The Mall Galleries, 10th - 21st June 2009

The annual exhibition takes place in June at The Mall Galleries in London and features works by both members and non-members. The show presents a vibrant exhibition of paintings and drawings reflecting the extremely diverse nature of the medium currently being produced by today's artists. It is accompanied by a number of events which offer the general public an opportunity to learn more about pastel painting, including a demonstration evening, workshops and critiques. The gallery will be open 10am - 5pm every day of the exhibition, except the last, on which it will close at 3pm.
