In November 2020 we highlighted visual art through online and real world exhibitions, though somewhat curtailed due to the COVID-19 lockdown
At LCB Depot we hosted Studio Open – an open exhibition for studio groups in Leicester/shire. This was part of the L.O.V.E. Art open call. You can see both exhibitions at https://www.loveartexhibition.co.uk/ and artwork from the Studio Open exhibition was published daily on Instagram, and populated the gallery below. If you we’re a local resident you could see a selection of the work on show in our Street Gallery.
At the end of the month Leicester Art Week (20-29 November) highlighted exhibitions from the city’s various galleries.
