The Gwen Heeney Centre For The Arts

The Gwen Heeney Centre For The Arts is an arts facilities was set up by a group of alumni from the West Midlands
who felt that people are being deprived of the creative guidance needed to enable them to make work professionally.

Their aim is to encourage participation by people from all walks of life, abilities and race to enjoy the power of creation for themselves.
They will be running fundraising workshops and an auction of work and are asking people if they’d like to be involved.

They are looking for donations of work from potters, glassmakers, printmakers and other artists to include in our forthcoming fundraising auction.

If you feel you can donate or help in any way please contact:

Mrs Kathy Burleigh,

Last Call for Artists! Closing Midnight 22nd August!

Call Opens for Our Next Online Glass Exhibition – ‘Bizarre and Surreal’!

Call Opens – 4th August
Deadline – 22nd August
Live – 6th October
Meet the Makers Talk – TBC
.
“That’s bizarre!” “How surreal!” -when we make these statements do we really know what they mean?
To be bizarre can also be described as odd, strange, unusual, grotesque, or weird.
In contrast surreal, in relation to an artwork could mean that the elements in it are combined in a way that you would not normally expect like having the disorienting, hallucinatory quality of a dream.
This immediately conjures up images by Salvador Dali and the Surrealists.

How are you bizarre and surreal? Does your work fit into this theme?
We’re inviting you to show us your work!
