 Theme: Solar & Sun Harnessing natural resources.  We have made a start on our entry , paperwork is due in by the end of February.  The concept is  based on Greek mythology…. In modern times  waves of solar panels resemble an inland sea. In this new era  The nymph Dynamene, the  powerful one, rises  from  the solar sea to wield her power. 

According to legend Dynamene, one of the nereids or sea nymphs could appear and disappear rapidly and controlled the power of winds and waves.




In the interest of safety and security we now have CCTV cameras installed. It would also be helpful if everyone using the gallery paid particular attention to keeping doors closed if no-one is on duty in the gallery area.

Wednesday Evening Artists group is starting up again so please consider joining this if you want to focus on your work in a supportive environment in 2023. 
We are always looking for fresh work in the gallery.



Our Yearly Calendar for 2023 is coming together. 
To help us finalise areas of focus we ask all members and interested parties to fill in the survey at
