The Atelier Open 2025

The Highlight of the summer down on Brighton Beach!

Our much-loved OPEN EXHIBITION is back at Atelier Beside the Sea, and it’s bigger and bolder than ever.

Running throughout the summer holidays, this annual showcase has become a favourite with both visitors and artists alike. This year, we had an overwhelming response—nearly 400 artists applied! Although our gallery spaces are generous and we hang work ‘salon-style’, we still had to make some tough choices, accepting only about two-thirds of the artists and fewer than half the submitted works.

That said, we've curated an incredibly varied and vibrant exhibition—there truly is something for everyone to enjoy… and perhaps even take home!

Join us for the Private View on Thursday 24th September – a lively evening full of art, conversation, and coastal charm.

After that, the exhibition is open every day through the summer. So come down to the beach, soak in the creativity, cast your vote for your favourite piece, and maybe discover your next favourite artist.
