WATCH ARTISTS AT WORK

We’re a group of 20 local artists, exhibiting original artworks - paintings, ceramics, sculpture, weaving, jewellery, and more. Artworks are rotated monthly
so there’s always something new
to see. We also host exhibitions for guest artists from the community.

Behind him, on the wall, there is a framed oil painting of two children holding hands, painted in a vibrant, impressionistic style.

enjoy original art

The space is open 7 days a week,
and is staffed by the participating artists on a rotating basis,
ensuring that every visit offers something new.  It's a live studio,
so whoever is in that day could be carving, embroidering, sculpting, printing - you never know!
