May – June

Connect

Our first online exhibition explores the theme of connection, something that we are all missing during this time. With over 150 works from over 50 artists, we hope that the inclusive nature of the exhibition brings joy, beauty, and hope to all who come to visit during these difficult times.

February

Postcard Show

Wednesday 26th February – Saturday 21st March

All galleries

Preview Evening
Wednesday 26th February from 6pm – 8pm

A brand new group exhibition featuring artworks inspired by the format of the humble postcard. Artists of all ages and ability have contributed to this wonderfully diverse show. Featuring painting, drawing, craft, sculpture, mixed media, and more.

All the artists in the exhibition responded to our latest open call for artworks and as always we are really impressed with the creativity and imagination on display. From pieces that hark back to postcards from bygone days to contemporary reinventions of the 6 x 4 format.

This is such a diverse and expressive show and one not to be missed!
