Up coming exhibition in the gallery
March’s exhibition will see new work by local talented artist taking the landscape into new dimensions. WE are keeping this secret so you will have to wait.
April will see a massive exhibition with the return of Barnsley Art Society with invited guests.
Last time they exhibited the gallery space was packed from the Society members alone so it looks as though we may have to take part of it to the other exhibition spaces.
Keep following for updates.
Update on March exhibition which features Joanne Jenkins “Dreamworld” now on until the end of March
Dreamworld extended
March’s exhibition which features Joanne Jenkins “Dreamworld” is now on until the end of March.
Poets in Action
On two occasions the gallery has had members from the Penistone based ‘Tuesday Poets’ group visit the gallery to be inspired into prose by the current “Portfolio One” photography exhibition.
The group have kindly left a selection of some of the poems for perusal by visitors in the gallery.
We are publishing a selection for your pleasure ‘Copyright applies’
Two Novice Monks at Monuha Temple Bagum
Such solemn young faces. Their bare feet. Imprinted by the rough stone. Cold Air Pressing. On Shaved heads. Magenta robes. Folded and pleated. Exposing bare shoulders. Lower arms. Hanging quiescent. All hushed so even the candles. Burn noisily. And light through high windows slices the darkness.
– Rae Moyise
At the Jumping Cat Monastery
The Cat was not jumping.
At the temple high on stilts in Lake Inle, tail-tip twitching it sat on the teak floor, half in shadow.
Once a monk befriended cats; between prayers and meditation tought them to jump through hoops with a click of fingers, an incline of head.
Light as birds, they leap up, twisted, turned in air, skipped up steps, through temple windows-free runners, used up all nine lives, and more.
Visitors come from worlds away, drop 50 kyat into the alms box. A bare foot monk bows, palms pressed together, “Namaste”
– Sue Riley
The Wind has done its Work
Mare’s tail clouds hide patches of blue.
The wind hums through pylons tearing out handfuls of wheatened grass.
It is caught on barbed wire like sheep leaving their fleece as they ease their way through a fence.
The toppers stand up on a dry stone wall, a leap of faith with no mortar to keep it together.
It has enclosed the fields for decades, water and frost will find a spot.
Vegetation bends before the south westerly, the wind has done its job

Update on out and about in June
In addition to the earlier news about being out and about promoting and representing the studio we spent Friday afternoon ensuring the front of the Campus leading to the Gallery was presentable with hanging baskets for Inspires fund raising Gala on the Saturday.
Turned in early on the Saturday as part of the gallery/studios promotion towards the gala in opening the gallery and the studio for visitors with demonstrations and a chance to try it out . The studio offered as party of the charity event to donate 20% of all takings to the event.
Whilst Anthony was undertaking this Joanne and Jean were at Wadsley Art Festival not only exhibiting but giving demonstrations as an added attraction to help draw visitors to raise funds for the church. they were joined on the Sunday by Anthony also giving demonstrations, so all in all a busy weekend.
So far in this month we have also kept up to date with visits to Huddersfield degree exhibitions and Sheffield Collages exhibitions to which all the studios students were appraised and encouraged to visit.
Check out the Sheffield Live radio site fm 93,2 for the 1500 and 1600 hours pod cast slot on the 18-06-2013 and listen to Anthony on a 1 hour 20 mins radio interview promoting the Studio/ Gallery and Campus. sheffieldlive.org

Ecclesfield Secondary School Christmas Fayre
Saturday the 10th December was a full day for the studio starting at 8.30 am we represented the studio at Ecclesfield Secondary school Christmas Fayre to raise funds for the school
It was well attended with pupils manning stands and helping out and the school band creating a festive atmosphere.
Having finished and packed up we then rushed off top Sheffield to support the Access Space’s opening of the transfer of the 20×20 exibition to the White Gallery situated on The Moor in Sheffield City Centre.
Lots of shoppers and a fair amount of interest in the exhibition.
