Prema Arts Centre is open Tue-Fri 10.30am until 5pm and admission to all exhibitions is completely free. If you're making a special trip over to see any of our exhibitions do give us a tinkle on 01453 860703 just to check that all spaces are available for viewing for the time of your visit.
We're often open at weekends too although the upstairs gallery may not be accessible due to a workshop taking place or a theatre doing a get-in.

Judith Pemberton-Bennetts
Free entry
Creative dynamo Judith Pemberton-Bennetts is an artist living and working in acrylics from her studio at her home in Dursley. Her impressionist work has a fun, spirited style which has in the past depicted life on the beach in Australia where bright colours and powerful sunlight were a real source of inspiration. Since returning to the Cotswolds Judith has been working on a variety of landscapes and sunsets in the surrounding area. Judith's work is readily recognised for the use of the vibrant colours of nature which, she hopes, brings a sense of opulence and happiness to the viewer.

Anton Christian
Free entry
The journey of an artist is not always a case of a straight line from A to B! Artist Anton Christian studied both fine art and graphic design back in the mid to late 1970s. He now creates highly detailed facades constructed from the humblest of materials, often found or recycled odds and ends but the resultant work is astonishing in its detail, delightful in its intricacy and testament to the precision and eye for details from a maker who still taps into his initial training!
