Charm trove

During their residency at this new gallery space, Adrienne Wroath and Joanne Hummel-Newell (both of whom recently exhibited at the HomeGrown Arts Event as part of the Ryde Arts Festival) will be using a variety of drawing, sculpture, installation and film to create an engaging and unique art exhibition using Sandown’s architecture, beach culture and importantly the community as inspiration.

“This is in part about reconnecting with our environment and so we aim to produce artwork which listens to the community and brings a sense of pride and belonging.” states Joanne Hummel-Newell.

“Sandown is regarded by many as a tacky bucket and spade resort yet everywhere are glimpses of its decadent Victorian past. The idea of Charm and Trove is to seamlessly intertwine these and create something new and beautiful’ says Adrienne Wroath

There will be a Drinks Launch on Friday 30th October from 7pm to which all are welcome and the Exhibition runs from Saturday 31st October – Saturday 21st November.

The gallery space is open Thursdays-Sundays, with a family workshop running each Saturday afternoon.
