Exhibitions
Deborah Grice
All Shall Be Well
This forthcoming Winter season we'll be welcoming landscape artist Deborah Grice to the gallery to headline our busiest season as part of our Christmas Programme
Bringing a collection of new original works; expect atmospheric landscapes in oil and charcoal, inspired by the philosophy and aesthetics of the nineteenth century romantics that serve to lure the viewer into a sense of familiarity, before gentle provoking with the addition of incongruous graphic forms.

We've an exclusive opportunity this Winter for you to see 'Nova' - a spectacular 3D illuminated installation by local sculptor Stephen Newby.
Nova is a 3m x 3m illuminated star sculpture, which has been shown in light festivals internationally. This spectacular installation will be hosted in the gallery for you to enjoy throughout December.
