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.

Canal Ware

We are very excited to announce that we will shortly be getting in a range of hand painted canal ware items at SerenArts Gallery.

It is something we have been thinking of doing for a number of years now and we decided that 2022 is the year to add even more colour to our gallery.

Here are just a few examples of the beautiful pieces we have coming in…

They are all hand painted by a lady who spent her first 14 years boating here on the Kennet and Avon Canal. Once the Devizes locks were opened up, she started exploring the stunning waterways of this country, paying her way by painting these wonderful pieces of canal ware.

We will post again to let you know when the range will be available to purchase.

Website Update

It’s that time of year when you have a bit more time to get things done, so we have been revamping the Tithebarn Workshops website ready for the coming year…

A Chilly Start

serenarts gallery morning canal walk

Yes… that is ice you can see forming on the canal! A very chilly start to the day on my morning walk. It’s going to be a ‘winter closed door policy’ at the gallery today!

I also noticed that the canal towpath is going to be closed from Bradford to Avoncliff for an extended period. The water level is going to be dropped by 100mm and repairs undertaken on the embankment. On the plus side, the mud on the river walk is frozen solid so you won’t get muddy going that way!

Happy New Year

We would just like to wish all our customers and friends a very happy new year and thank you for all your much needed support during 2021.

We will be reopening SerenArts Gallery on Tuesday 4th January and look forward to welcoming you all again in the new year.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉

Website Expansion

We have actually started one of our New Years projects a little early and have begun to add all our printing and design services to the main SerenArts Gallery website / blog…

So whether it is a book printing job or simply a photocopy you are looking for, you will be able to find it all in one place.

Please come back again soon to see what has been added.

Morning Visitor to SerenArts Gallery

It doesn’t take a squirrel long to figure things out and this resourceful little chap has discovered where we keep the box of bird food at SerenArts. We heard a rustling and there was his little face peering out under the curtain! A bit of early Christmas shopping perhaps?!
