We have lined up live music, tasty tacos, loads of arty goodies, pottery, glass and much more, with stalls in the garden and open studios.

The weather forecast is possible showers, but that won’t dampen our spirits and we are looking forward to welcoming everyone for a special day.

We’ve done a thing!

Preparations are continuing for the Tithebarn Workshops Spring Fling on Saturday 19th April. As well at the 9 stalls that will be selling their arts and creations from the garden, we now also have Tacos and Dreams providing their delicious food, a selection of live music and we have created the all new ‘Garden Bar’…

Thanks to a combination of hard work from the TBW gang, the painting skills of Serena and fabulous wordworking from Tim of TH Furniture, we now have our very own pop up bar ready for events. We have event licences in place for both the Spring Fling and the weekend of the Green Man Festival and we’re all very excited to welcome our first customers! Guest bar tending slots will be filled by all the crew down here, so watch out for your favourite bar staff!!

Waiting for Breakfast!

On our walk down to the gallery this morning we spotted this hungry heron sitting on the Lock Inn’s canal boat, outdoor dining… not sure that he wasn’t a bit too early for a Boatmans!

Serena’s Pop Up Summer Exhibition

We wanted to let you know that we have now set the date for Serena’s Pop Up Summer Exhibition… the weekend of 21st and 22nd June 2025. This not only marks the first official day of summer but also Serena’s first local exhibition at the Tithebarn Workshops.

The exhibition will take place in our brand new gazebo in the beautiful gardens of the Workshops. It will be open from 9am to 6pm both Saturday and Sunday and we are having a preview evening on Friday 20th June from 5pm to 9pm (please contact us for an invitation).

The show will feature all Serena’s very latest works and will give you the opportunity for a first look and maybe make a purchase before it goes into our gallery and on to the website.

In previous years we have attended various art fairs around the country. However, this year we made the decision to stay closer to home and offer our customers are more affordable and approachable way of buying art.

If you would like more information about the exhibition or would like to come along on the preview evening, please feel free to contact us.

Spring is Coming…

That was a close one! Our thoughts here at the Tithebarn Workshops are with those hit by the latest floods in Town. We just got away with it here this time.

We had water approaching from the front and the back of the units, a full pincer movement!:

Nature is remarkable though, as within days of the water subsiding spring started to pop up in the shape of first snowdrops:

Can we please now have some nice dry weather!

Everything down at Barton Farm is open and later today will be accessible from all directions again, as Barton Bridge and the River Walk will soon be reappearing!

We look forward to seeing you soon.
