Thanks to the many who came to an enjoyable Sunday at Studio 36 on November 24th!
Work by Ardyn Griffin, Clive Hurman, Uschi Arens-Price, Steven Bramble and Veronica Gosling was on show. Joelle and friends ran the café, serving tea, cakes and a variety of soups. Joe Skivington and Peter Farrie played live music.
Our Think Chair exhibition ran from July 7th – 28th. Many thanks to everyone who came and made it such a fun and interesting three weeks and also many thanks from Age UK Exeter whose Budding Friends project you donated to.
We had a very well-attended finale of our Think Chair exhibition in fine weather on Sunday featuring live music from the Plum Jam Jazz Quintet, Peter Nickol and Peter Farrie. Mary Bramble was here with her children’s trail and Joelle served tea and delicious food in the café.
Many thanks to everyone who came and made it such a fun event and also many thanks from Age UK Exeter whose Budding Friends project you donated to.

Our September exhibition at Exeter Central Library is now closed. It featured artwork from the Get On Board Community Boards and a panel telling the story of how the project came about. Thank you to all who have contributed artwork, poems, stories, photographs and more.
Visit Gordon Hill’s website to watch the video of him talking in his studio about the role art played in his life and to browse a selection of his artwork.
Ardyn is a multi-talented artist with a rich imagination and a talent for story telling. Much of Ardyn’s work is inspired by her garden and this influence can be found throughout her paintings and exquisitely painted boxes. Plant motifs, people and animal forms all interlock with a richness of detail and light, akin to a woven tapestry.
Her playful papier maché sculptures are enjoyed by adults and children alike with their humour and diverse, imaginative designs. Cats, birds, boats, sheep, knights, ‘Russian dolls’ and beautiful wall clocks are just some examples but are the tip of the ‘proverbial iceberg’.
