Artists from across Oxford have been invited to enter a competition to have their work displayed at a new venue in Westgate shopping centre.

Flight Club, a fairground-inspired bar and social darts experience, is opening in Oxford in November and is calling for submissions to its 'Window of Opportunity' competition.

The winning artist will see their work exhibited in a window outside the bar’s new Westgate venue.

The bar is challenging Oxford's artists to submit pieces that convey their interpretation of the word 'joy'.

Steve Moore, CEO and co-founder of Flight Club, said: "Our award-winning interiors team take the design of our bars extremely seriously, with art of all mediums always playing a huge part in the overall vibe of our venues.

"Our newest venue in Oxford is no exception, but this time we want to extend our celebration of art beyond the inside of our venue and take the joy outside too.
