Bistro exhibition space at Redwoods CentreWe 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 air-dried clay work by participants of our Wellbeing Art Group in Shrewsbury.

 

Group participant.jpgThe 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.

Participants in the group have had several weeks to use the clay and understand its texture and feel, to create several different piecesExhibition.jpg – mostly tile reliefs, expressing colour, form and content.

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.
