Workshops!

We have a brand new workshop program to tempt you! It's online now and you are all set to book your places. There are weekend workshops, week day workshops and in all manner of mediums. Textiles, printmaking, patchwork, soft sculpture, reconstructed clothing, blacksmithing! You can also pick up a printed program from the gallery later this week. Feast your eyes on the range HERE.

Blacksmithing workshop currently available!

The blacksmithing workshops have been very popular - but there are still a couple of places left! Book in ASAP so you don't miss out. The full weekend workshop is HERE and the short taster (with a glass of wine) is HERE. (No reason you can't do both...)

All of our courses offer a safe, cheerful and casual environment to engage your creative side. Very non-threatening, and a great way to meet other people in the community as well. By enrolling in any of our courses, you are also supporting the work we are doing to offer them.

For the Diary!

The next exhibition will be launched on Thursday, 3 July at 6pm. This is a joint exhibition of works by April Welfare and Sue Quinlan Brain, titled Found Landscapes. Our monthly launches provide a great opportunity to meet our artists, to support our art space, and to socialise and make new connections.
