Tooveys - Contemporary Art Auction Tonight


Toovey's Auction House in Washington, North of Worthing is holding their Auction of Contemporary Art tonight (Saturday 30th). The Auction is pioneering because it gives emerging artists the chance to sell their work at auction, whereas usually Auctions seem to favour dead or very collectible names. Sarah's got a few pieces in the auction tonight and in previous years has had good success selling some work for over the gallery price.


For the auction goer, there is a chance to see a large variety of high quality work selected by the Auctioneer Nick Toovey in one place. As well as the chance to snap a bargain - many of pieces have low reserves but be warned it is easy to get carried away bidding for the piece you really want.


Also - don't forget the Old Forge at South Heighton, Newhaven is open this weekend for a fantastic open house, cream tea and a lovely shady garden.
