OPEN OPEN 2025:
Wish You Were Here
3 - 26 July 2025
Open Thursday to Saturday from 11am - 4pm
FREE!
This summer,
Open Open 2025: Wish You Were Here presents 46 works carefully selected from over 100 submissions by 60 artists. Together, these pieces explore the many ways we hold memory—tender, fragmented, joyful, and unresolved. They ask what it means to remember, and what it means to long for someone, something, or somewhere no longer close.
WHO ARE WE?
CAS is a socially-engaged, contemporary visual arts organisation based right here in Andover. It supports artists of all ages and backgrounds, and runs projects that connect art with the community in meaningful ways. We’re also proud to be one of Arts Council England’s National Portfolio Organisations.
Since opening as an artist studio in 2009, CAS has grown into a hub for creativity and questioning. It became a charity in 2019, which was also the Chapel’s 150th birthday—and yes, CAS really did send artwork into space!
