WHAT IS OFF THE WALL?
OTW is a partnership with local artists and our friends @ Harrow Arts Society. Together we have created a permanent rotating art gallery in Harrow Weald.
ParkLife Crew have met some of the loveliest of people, we found out not all artists are painters, and we do not sell cheap art works, we have been told they are affordable. You can purchase local artists works of art @ ParkLife café.
Come and join us to see the latest works.
- Meet and chat to the artists.
- Enjoy some time with others.
- See some of the amazing things our Harrow Artists create.

The walls of ParkLife are decked with affordable local art that we rotate regularly, the racks are bursting with a growing selection of artist designed cards and a curious cabinet simply bursting with curious objects for sale.
Every few weeks, we change the exhibition and create a party.
Each rotations (PV's) is a meet the artist event, spend a couple of hours chatting with the artists, chilling with some questionably nibbles, washed down with maybe some wine, maybe some water, but definitely a drink.
Bringing the nicest bunch of people together to chill, chat, view and purchase locals artists works.
Off The Wall is about hearing, talking, the eyes, the mind, taste, and the soul. We challenge the mind and encourage people to try new things.
A rotating community art gallery there is always something new to enjoy, with local artists and Harrow Arts Society.

ABOUT OFF THE WALL
Our "PV's" (that's fancy art lingo for Private Viewings, but we prefer to think of them as flipping the script, and rotate all the pictures with new art) and chilling with the loveliest of artists and people.
We bring together the nicest bunch of folks in town to chill, chat, and dive into the world of local artists' works. And hey, if something catches your eye, it's up for grabs!
PV's are when we spend a couple of hours chatting with the artistic geniuses, chilling with nibbles that may be a tad questionable (but hey, who doesn't love an adventure for the taste buds?), and washing it all down with perhaps some wine, maybe some water, but definitely some kind of drink.
