Charlton Arts Centre
- 9 June 2012 14:25177244The Arts Centre on the first floor of the Charlton Centre has just undergone a revamp with the efforts of some dedicated volunteers from the White Cliffs Creatives Guild, and has just reopened to the public with an open exhibition of regular contributors and promises of lots more to come.
As well as the exhibition there is a shop selling art and crafts by members, not just paintings but cards, jewellery, handbags, stained glass, sculpture etc, all at affordable prices (you might even spot my name on a few prints.)
The one thing it does need is visitors - even if you have no intention of buying please go along and have a browse, look at the local talent on display, have a chat, have a coffee downstairs and tell everyone about it, it's a little out of the way up the back stairs but well worth a visit. Opening times and details are on the link below, usually 10-4 on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday.

Some of the regular photo contributors on here might even want to join up and put work on display
- 9 June 2012 15:01177247will have to pop in and see what is on offer there, rather unusual opening days though.

Roger - 9 June 2012 16:22177262Thanks Roger - all down to some keen volunteers giving time for free, hence the restricted opening times but hopefully that can be built on.

9 June 2012 18:04177296For those unable to climb the stairs is the lift still working also there used to be displays in the empty Charlton Centre shops I hope these can continue.-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.
------------------------------------------------------------------- - 9 June 2012 18:09177298I would expect the lift to still be working as it serves the multistorey car park, as for displays in the empty shops I think the new owners are hoping there soon won't be any!
