Experience the wealth of talent that is often hidden from public view over five floors of our beautiful listed building.  
Artists in Action – see how work is produced and chat with the artists about their processes and materials. Buy direct! You can commission items as well as buy “off the wall”. Sign up here for fantastic courses run by our members! Piano recitals by Steve Luck.
