About Our Exhibitions


The Red Brick Building hosts regular art exhibitions by established and emerging artists from the local area and further afield. Our aim is to showcase the wealth of creative talent in Somerset, as well as to bring in high profile exhibitions from cities such as London and Bristol to make them accessible to the local community.

We run a rolling programme of art exhibitions in a number of multi-functional gallery spaces within the building. Previous exhibitions have included work from: the iconic 60’s sculptor Francis Morland, the British Wildife Photography Awards, A Level and Undergraduate Art Students from local schools and colleges, and Stanley Donwood – responsible for Radiohead’s cutting edge graphic design.

The Red Brick Arts Committee, who curate our exhibition programme, is an eclectic group of practising and professional artists and art-appreciators. Their skills and passions include fine art, painting, illustration, design, photography, video and audio-visual production.

We welcome approaches from local, national and international artists (including local schools and colleges), working across all media, who would like to exhibit at the Red Brick Building.
