<div><font color="#0056cd"><br></font>************<br>Ante takes the idea of art and scrapes off the dogma, the commercialism and the elitism. Ante explores and celebrates the use of art and print as an expression of free will and a megaphone for those whose collective voices struggle to be heard.<br>

<font color="#0056cd"><br></font>Ante is Shipley's May Day celebration, taking place at the Kirkgate Centre on the 4-5th May. Saturday starts with a small press, zine and print fair followed by a benefit gig. Sunday is an ante-Art factory - dress for mess and produce your own £25million masterpiece.<br>
