Bring Baby Choir
Singing is a great way to relieve stress and promote well-being.
Meet new people and take some time for you in this new acappella choir for mums, dads, grandparents, carers and their babies!
It is a baby friendly class, created especially so you can bring the baby you care for. Grown ups are in a semi circle (with room for your buggy next to you) and babies can sit, crawl or play on the blanket in front of you.
These uplifting classes are led by conductor/composer (and mum) Marta Radwan. There's no auditions, no singing experience is needed and you don't need to have a 'good voice' - just an openness to have a go! You'll be sure to know the songs and there will even be some which include your little one.
There's also:
* Free on-site parking
* Café (open all day)
* Baby changing facilities
Mums, Dads, Grandparents, Carers all welcome with their babies under 18 months

Recording the Everyday
Drawings by Alex Dewart and Cally Trench
Alex Dewart
Alex Dewart spent October 2024 on Vancouver Island on an Art Residency. Every day she recorded birdsong. She used the sound waves from these recordings with colours and textures from the birds’ plumages to produce the artworks, digitally printed onto fabric.
Cally Trench
Cally Trench draws her hands every day from life, life-size, using both hands. She alters the position of her hands slightly each day, suggesting the possibility of movement. Every drawing is recognisably the same but different, like daily life itself. She draws with a fine black pigment ink pen on smooth watercolour paper.
The sequence of drawings exhibited here were made in February this year.
Tuesdays - Saturdays
5pm - 10pm

Qigong
Led by Clare Marshall
Qigong is a system of wellness that enhances a healthy body, mind and spirit.
It is an ancient Chinese way of life that uses exercises with breathing to focus the mind, to gather and increase energy through the body from within. It is a technique that can be useful in daily life for self-care as it calms the mind and hence has a positive effect on the body. Modern research has demonstrated its effectiveness in health improvement. Qigong philosophy has been absorbed into Tai Chi.
Clare, who is a physiotherapist and accredited Tai Chi instructor, will guide you and adapt the movements to be safe and comfortable for the individual. Each gentle, simple movement is followed by a cleansing breath. It can be done seated or standing and to your own level of ability.
The classes are fun, relaxed and suitable to all.
