Textile Tales

Mary Walker Foundation

Monday 9th February - Saturday 28th February

Textile Tales is an exhibition of work by a group of textile artists who have come together under the banner of the Mary Walker Foundation.

The foundation was set up two years ago to make Bungay a recognised centre for textile art. Since its inception supporters have been working towards a hanging celebrating the town, to go in the Community Centre.

This exhibition showcases the personal, varied styles and techniques used by the artists to create their own view of the world.

Change Minds

Laurie Mason

Wednesday 11th March - Wednesday 25th March

Introduced to Dr Hill’s case files from the Norfolk County Lunatic Asylum during her university studies, Laurie was immediately drawn to the faded photographs of its patients.

As a portrait painter, faces have always been her focus — these images became a way to reconnect with forgotten lives.

Painted on found boards and guided by their imperfections, each work seeks to restore individuality and humanity to those long overlooked, honouring their presence and preserving the stories that might otherwise have been lost.
