We want to extend a very special thank you to Leyland Tile Adhesives for sponsoring our Winter Tree, as part of the Winter exhibition. Without them we simply would not have had a tree.
The real Nordic Pine tree looks and smells wonderful, decked in blue and white LED lights and covered in artificial snow, decorated with ceramic gingerbread men and trees from artists Joseph & Andrea Travis, a gorgeous silver icicle from Evelyn Rose, lino cut reindeer from Julie Saul, small package from Lauretta Rapley and a variety of other handmade objects from other local artists.
As it is a ‘winter tree’ (definitely not a ‘Christmas’ tree) we will not be taking it down on 12th Night, so it will remain in the gallery in all its glory until the exhibition closes on January 29th. It will then be recycled for use elsewhere in the mill.
Please note Oxheys will be closed from 23rd December until 4th January.
