Arts Council Nelson is proud to present RAW 2023 and invites you to view this special exhibition
at the Refinery ArtSpace 14th March - 6th April 2023. 
       
​
RAW - Work Outside the Edge showcasing works by people from around the country who have no formal or traditional art training, that express individuality and inventiveness, ​that are ‘RAW’ – uncooked by cultural and artistic influences.

RAW 23 - A walk through. Thanks to Uniquely Nelson. 

A showcase for artists who find their artwork just doesn’t seem to fit in with most mainstream galleries, that is a little edgy, naive or perhaps even ‘un-refined’
