We have 3 exhibition spaces available within our mental health facilities - Mellor House and St Chads at St Georges 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 artwork from our playing cards project.
Artists Mark Uttley and Maddy Blatherwick-Plumb worked with patients and staff on wards at St George’s Hospital, Stafford and The Redwoods Centre, Shrewsbury, to create new artwork which has been used to create 2 packs of playing cards.
These playing cards celebrate the wonderful artwork created by patients and staff and raises awareness and understanding around all aspects of mental health.
