Welcome!




Thank you for taking the time to read about our pop-up gallery in rural Gloucestershire! We'd love you to visit soon or if you'd like to exhibit, please contact us as we're taking bookings for 2014.

At every exhibition we serve teas & home made cakes in our 1970s caravan using retro china to take you back to the 1950s, 60s and 70s!

We serve our tea in tea pots so you can linger a while....



A beautiful view over the River Severn and Coaley Peak, gorgeous cakes & art-
what more could you ask for?

Retro teas

Good news is chocolate cake recipe has gone down a storm so definitely making a stack of them for the gallery opening! (will be trying out some more flavours etc over the next week- so come round if you want to taste test)

Started hunting down retro gear for teas. Nice to be recognised as I rummaged in charity shops in Stroud- thanks Stroud Life for the coverage- really appreciate it!

So far some teapots, a 70s  tea tray, some fabric for tablecloths and some melamine white flowery tea cups, plates etc. I REALLY want some of that orange/mustard cups etc sets that I remember so well from the 70s when I was a kid. Surely someone out there has some we can beg/borrow etc...?  Need lots more though... if everyone turns up and brings at least a couple of friends, who says they will, we'll be inundated (can't think of anything better!)

So keep telling every one about the opening, and have a rummage in your aunty's old kitchen cupboard to see if there's anything we can use to create that shabby low key slightly tacky retro feel!
