Hannah Huntly, one of the owners of Applaud and a keen artist herself, said: "All work for sale on the night will be at a reduced price, because the Art Boot Sale is the opportunity for our local artists to have a studio tidy up and sell discontinued prints, artist proofs, and work from past exhibitions – a “Studio Spring Clean!”
