Art enthusiasts across Cumbria have the chance to meet a renowned contemporary British artist and find out more about her work.

Former Windermere school pupil Kitty North will be at Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa on the afternoon of Wednesday 27 March 2024 to talk about ‘Buildings in the Landscape’, her latest exhibition which is on display at the hotel.

The ‘meet the artist’ event from 2:30pm to 5pm has been organised in partnership with British art specialists Gavagan Art. It will allow budding artists and keen collectors alike the opportunity to chat with Kitty about her paintings and the inspiration behind them.

The gallery display at Low Wood Bay features some of Kitty North’s most prominent works, including Moonlit Night, her painting of Levens Hall and The Old Rectory, once home to the English poet John Betjeman.

A former ‘artist in residence’ at Levens Hall, Kitty has been the driving force behind a number of prominent art projects across Britain, including commissions at Bolton Abbey and Chatsworth House.

English Lakes Hotels Resorts & Venues executive chairman Simon Berry says:

“Kitty’s exhibition here is bringing her paintings to a wider audience. This event is taking that idea a step further to allow art enthusiasts to talk to her informally about her experience as a leading colourist and what continues to inspire her in her paintings.”
