Spring 2025
This year the BAS Spring Exhibition is being held at the Gallery Upstairs, Upton Country Park. Come and view the latest original works of art depicting the many themes and subjects that have caught the attention of our members over the last year. Most of the work is for sale, and a wide range of greetings cards will also be available.
A special category this time will be an assortment of concertina sketchbooks linked to a project entitled ‘Winter to Spring’ that some members have been working on over the winter.
The exhibition will be open Thursday 1 - Tuesday 13 May. Opening hours are 10-5 daily, closing 2pm on the final day.
