| | It seems that the Easter Bunny couldn't wait until Sunday to bring us a treat. We are absolutely hopping with joy to share that we have been awarded funding from Arts Council England! This extra sprinkle of magic means that we can offer some free art classes and creative opportunities, to reach even more of the community. What better way to welcome a new term at the gallery!

Celebrating Our Partners In Creativity |
|
We are incredibly proud to be supported by Arts Council England, the national development agency for creativity and culture. Their 'Let's Create' strategy is about making sure that every person, regardless of their background or postcode, has a chance to be creative and access high-quality cultural experiences.
By supporting grassroots initiatives like ours, they help turn local spaces into hubs of discovery. Their support specifically focusses on:
Creative people: Helping everyone find their unique voice. Cultural communities: Bringing people together through art and shared experiences. Future talent: Ensuring children have the tools to dream big and grow their skills.

| | Spring is all about new life, so we recently invited young dreamers to show us exactly what LIFE means to them. The result? Another awe-inspiring collection of work created by artists from 6 to 16 years old.
This is one you won't want to miss, so flutter by the gallery before it all disappears on the 15th of May. |

| | Just as Spring calls for everything to bloom in its own way, our classes invite children to follow their own unique creative instincts. We explore a wide variety of mediums and techniques without the pressure of a 'perfect' or uniform end result. By removing the need to conform, we make space for spontaneity and wonder.
Classes are small (8 children maximum), so booking early is recommended! |
