Community Projects

The art room periodically carries out commissioned or speculative art projects, for the benefit of our and other communities. These can take the form of sculpture or mural work, but normally are pretty big and involve lots of people in their creation - a coming together of artists to create something.

Previous projects include a mural for the Chestnut Tree Hospice and the Royal Alexandra Childrens Hospital in Brighton.Students also helped in the restoration of the Corner house stained glass front door.

Our current project has been to produce a set of work based on the theme "Sussex by the Sea" inspired from a recent trip to see John Pipers work at the Towner Gallery. The three 4ft x 4ft square panels and two pieces of framed work are going to Meadowfield Hospital in November.

 

Stained Glass in Action

If you are interested in commissioning a project, we are always on the look out for new opportunities to link with our local community. Our work emphasises cost effectiveness - because it is a colaborative effort of many artists, our time is free. We often only charge for materials. If you would like to know more or make an enquiry, please send Angie an email.
