‘I seek a place that can never be destroyed, one that is pure, and that fadeth not away, and it is laid up in heaven … to them that seek it with all their heart. Read it so, if you will, in my book.’ John Bunyan

​

With ‘The Pilgrim’s Progress’ as our inspiration, we encourage others to explore the possibilities of engaging creatively and spiritually through the many facets of ‘communication’: from artworks, bookbinding, calligraphy, drawing, painting, marbling, music and illustration - to the exciting possibilities of printing, typography and digital design. We have a flexible exhibition and meeting space, craft-room, a studio for our Resident Artist, as well as a quiet room and refreshment area.
