"A Winter Circus of make believe. Cabinets of curiosities, extravaganzas of peep shows, this is a place where talented makers and performers come together.

The circus has a deep attraction with artists, makers and performers. Painters, printmakers, jewellers and ceramic artists at The Art Shop have collaborated to put on a show of story telling and humour, clowning and nonsense, games and transformations, fantasies and pleasures.

Come and be entertained, amused, delighted and surprised. This is a celebratory winter show for all. Gather ideas and inspiration for Christmas in "

The gallery features many different types of artwork, from stone carvers and ceramicists to painters and print makers.
