We are all looking forward to welcoming lots of people to this beautiful corner of Bradford on Avon.

Barton Farm Country Park

Not much chance of spotting the kingfishers that regularly visit the Barton Bridge area this morning…

Some much needed tree chopping over at the Rowing Club has meant frequent trips through the ford and over the bridge for this tractor and trailer. It always looks a bit odd seeing vehicles on Barton Bridge!

On another note… plans are progressing for the Cloth Road Arts Week at the Tithebarn Workshops. We now have 5 artists / makers participating from 30th April – 8th May 2022. (Serena Pugh | Helen James | Jacqueline Byrne | Karen Mizak | Mary Petrovska)More information to follow soon.

Bradford on Avon Tea Towels

Just a quick post to let you know that we will shortly be getting in a new collection of our very popular cotton tea towels

This time, we have gone for a collection of local photographs as well as art images, all by Serena.

The will be available to purchase from our gallery later this week and also from this website.

Plans are now moving on quite quickly with this years Royal Bath & West Show. Serena will be exhibiting at the show with local artist and friend Steve Hall. We originally met Steve at the Bath & West back in 2010 and have been friends ever since. There is a lovely symmetry about returning to the place where things all started.

We have had confirmation that we are going to be in Exmoor Hall in the Gifts and Lifestyle section of the show. More information will follow as and when we get it, but we are very excited about attending this prestigious event again after all these years.

Spring Flowers

These beautiful blooms popped up recently around the stump of the old cherry tree that came down in the storms a few years ago. A little bit of spring in the garden at the Tithebarn Workshops.

Storm Eunice

Well, we got off pretty lightly compared to many…

Just a couple of small trees / branches down… a bit of light pruning if you will! We’re all back to business as usual down here at the Tithebarn Workshops.

We hope to welcome you soon.

We look forward to welcoming you soon.

The Canal Ware has Arrived…

Well, this is very exciting! We are thrilled to let you have a first look at the beautiful range of hand painted canal ware that has just arrived at SerenArts Gallery.

If you saw our previous post you will have seen that these delightful pieces are all hand painted (no transfers or stencils) by a lady who spent over 15 years in and around Bradford on Avon, on the Kennet and Avon Canal. Once the Caen Hill Locks reopened, the country’s waterways were open for exploring and off she went.

We are really pleased to be able to offer her stunning work from our gallery to locals and visitors alike.

Greeting Card Printing

We have just had the pleasure of printing another batch of greeting cards for graphic artist David Snashall. You can follow his work via his Instagram or by visiting his website.

If you would like more information or a quote for putting your artwork on to greeting cards please contact us at any time.
