As well as our two annual exhibitions, we are pleased to have a permanent space in St. Mary’s Church, Shrewsbury, that we use for a changing cycle of exhibitions. Members, do respond to the calls in Focal Points if you would like to take part! Please note that the 2025 rota is now full. A future Focal Points will invite applications for 2026. Thank you.
The programme between April and the end of 2025 is as follows:
11 April – Lena Jarl Churm
17 May – Margaret Rowson and Frank Hilton
21 June – The Summer Exhibition
12 July – Arts Trail Exhibition. Together with our recent Summer Exhibition, the Permanent Exhibition will be the Society’s contribution to the 2025 Shrewsbury Arts Trail ~ thank you to all our members who have contributed paintings.
6 September – Kirstie Edwards and Ros Rawlinson
1 November to end of year – The Print Club
The way it works:
Take down and set up is on Saturday mornings from 10am to 12 noon. All paintings may be for sale. There is a 25% commission taken on all sales.
Members should supply their own labels and ‘Blu Tack’. Suitable wrapping is stored in the trunk directly below the boards. While there is no cafe in St. Mary’s Church, exhibiting members’ contact details will be displayed on the exhibition boards, so that people interested in purchasing work may contact the artists directly.
