Company activities and impact

The company ran exhibitions for local and regional artists to display and sell their work and to give them confidence to develop creatively. Our exhibitions are free to visit for the local community and the tourist trade, and our programme of unadjudicated short-term shows (many of them open to all) is unique in our area. We have repositioned our Arts and Crafts retail area to the larger exhibition space creating a larger second space where we have trialled workshops and other events to enhance our engagement with the local community. We continue to sell a popular range of branded artists' materials, prints and greetings cards. Our second exhibition space, which we have named The Flex has allowed us to put on selected exhibitions with two or three artists. We have established an annual event working with local care homes and schools. We've held a total of over 30 exhibitions during the financial year. There is also a permenant display of outdoor sculptures, an interactive creative event linking poetry. We continue to develop the skills of our volunteer team, both to help them increase their personal satisfaction, and to understudy the paid contractors.
