We have 3 exhibition spaces available within our mental health facilities: Trust Headquarters and St. Chad's at St. George's Hospital in Stafford, and the Bistro at The Redwoods Centre in Shrewsbury.
Traditionally these have been used for entries from our Art Competitions and they are also available for art work from our art groups.
The exhibition space is in the Bistro area, by main reception and we are currently showing an exhibition of lino-cut work by participants of our Wellbeing Art Group in Shrewsbury.
The group meet every Thursday at English Bridge Workshop and explore a range of different art techniques and methods, under the
guidance of our professional artists Jean Mills and Jackie Coyle.
On the evening of Thursday 28th November we held an exhibition opening, showing a mix of lino-cut artwork and screen printing images that were created with the support of Dungarees and Squeegees, who operate from the English Bridge Workshop where the art group meets.
They are all truly lovely pieces of work and we are proud of the group for their expertise and imagination.
Thanks to the artists for their continued professionalism, ideas, and caring support with the project, and to Vibrant Shropshire for funding towards this project.
