How different was it then to your Christmas today? Many of the traditions we have today were not thought of 500 years ago. Come with us from Advent, through the 12 days of Christmas, to Plough Monday, and find out what Christmas was like in the 16th century! A really entertaining and informative evening with ‘From time to time’.
Doors open 7pm to view galleries. Festive snacks at 7.30pm, followed by the event.
Come along and be the first to see and enjoy 2027’s Young Artist Exhibition!
The YAE is a chance for young artists aged between 4 and 18, who are passionate about art and creativity, to produce a piece of artwork that they are proud of and have the chance for it to be displayed in a real gallery exhibition.
Our theme for this year’s YAE is: ‘Our Great Outdoors: Art Inspired by the Natural World’.
