Events

Inspired by the wonder and mystery of stars and space, this display is unashamedly focused on all things bright, twinkly and sparkly. It features jewellery in precious materials, ceramics with lustrous glazes, and textiles in plush fabrics. Every piece is hand-made by a designer-maker and there are a range of prices. With Christmas approaching, this provides an excellent opportunity to purchase more unusual and original gifts. So, why not indulge yourself or a loved one with a piece of beautiful craft that is out of this world.

RBSA Gallery open Monday to Saturday 10.30am-5.00pm, Sunday 1.00-5.00pm

Curated by the photography collective ‘Inside the Outside’, Out of the Woods of Thought features work by its founding members Al Brydon, Rob Hudson, Stephen Segasby and Joseph Wright whose collective philosophy hinges on a number of interconnected questions about how we relate to the landscape and the way in which this informs their representation of it in photographic form. Complementing this philosophy is work by a number of handpicked guest exhibitors that include Lynda Laird, Tom Wilkinson, J.M. Golding, Brian David Stevens and Guy Dickinson.

Opening times
Tuesday – Saturday: 12:00noon – 6:00pm

Deborette-Creative and 1000 Trades have teamed up to offer you Crafty Sip. Drawing inspiration from the DIY Bar in Portland, Oregon, USA – Crafty Sip sessions are a fun way to spend a few hours ‘crafting’ with your friends on a sociable level.

What better way to make, than with your mates and drinks. The session allows you to produce up to two mini creative projects, with two drinks over a maximum of three hours all included in the price.

The aim is that Crafty Sip will be a monthly session for you to enjoy being creative and projects will vary each month. If you choose to do two projects over two hours and half hours that’s fine, remember your working at your pace.

You will follow a step-by-step method sheet for making your projects, helping each other out but if you need assistance I will jump in to support you.

The sessions are suitable for adults of all skill levels.

You will follow instructions to ‘craft’ your product, working at your own pace.
You will create your own items from pre-made templates.
This session comprises a leather card holder and keyring that you have the option to personalise.
The session runs from 2.30pm-5.30pm (If you want to do 2 hours within that time frame that’s fine).
