Exhibition | Tidings of Comfort and Joy - Miriam Sharp

FREE ADMISSION | GALLERY OPEN: Wednesday to Sunday 10.30am – 3.30pm | Closed Monday, Tuesday & Public Holidays

Through fibre arts, Miriam Sharp communicates a message of seeking, finding and creating comfort and joy to improve our mental health and relationships with others.

Creating together and sharing the enjoyment of making improves wellbeing and improves connections.

Miriam encourages the viewer to contemplate where they find meaning and satisfaction and to appreciate the little things in life.

Spending time with other people, and making and playing together perform an important role in our experiencing comfort and joy.

Art and craft, in particular fibre crafts, have a positive impact on health and wellbeing, from the meditative act of spinning fibres into yarn through to the enjoyment of wearing or gifting a handmade item.

Through modern application of historical crafts such as knitting and weaving, Miriam creates a connection with the people of the past as well as the present.

Join us between 10.30am and 3.30pm Saturday 16 November for a Meet the Artist event with Miriam Sharp.
Come along to see Miriam’s work and learn more about her art practice.

Free event | All welcome | No bookings required
