Upcoming Exhibitions

Forever Altered - An Exhibition by Lucie Maycock

‘Forever Altered’ is a series of paintings depicting people who have had an influence on my life. I started with an initial idea that I wanted to create large abstract pieces and went on to ask the people closest to me what they thought made me unique. From the answers I received I realised that what made me unique was them, and the impact they have had on me, so I decided to dedicate my first solo exhibition to these people.

Open to the public Monday - Friday 10am - 4pm. Please call prior to your visit to guarantee the exhibition is open as it may close from time to time due to other events taking place.

You can find out more about Lucie and her exhibition in this blog post.
