SOLAR GALLERY: Poetry and Image

14th Jun 2025 - 31st Aug 2025

The Solar Gallery’s summer theme is Poetry and Image.

Named after the historic room it occupies, the Solar Gallery is a permanent space upstairs showcasing the diverse work of professional painters, printmakers, photographers, sculptors, and textile/ceramic/glass artists. Some are established with decades of exhibition experience, while others are students just beginning their artistic journey!

The Poetry and Image theme allows the artists scope to focus on unique viewpoints, exploring how this theme informs their individual practice.
