Fresh Arts Exhibitions

Fresh Arts has a vibrant exhibition programme covering four different gallery spaces across the 2 hospitals. 2 of these galleries exhibit work from local schools and colleges whilst the other 2 exhibit work from local and nationally-renowned artists, art groups and local organisations.

We host both selling and non-profit-making exhibitions.  If an exhibited artwork is sold as a direct result of being displayed in the hospitals, the artist donates 20% of the price to Fresh Arts.  This donation helps to run the programme.

The exhibitions are a great source of interest for staff and patients alike. Even if the exhibits aren't to everyone's taste, they do provoke comment and discussion.   

I saw the exhibit while visiting my Mum. The view is of where I grew up and used to sit and watch the sun go down. It evoked such happy memories.
