BHAAM visit to Close Gallery

It is rare that BHAAM members find time to go out together on an art trip, so this is worth celebrating. Earlier in the year, a small group of members went to see the fabulous exhibition Sunny Side Up at the Close Gallery in Hatch Beauchamp.

Founded by Freeny Yianni, Close Gallery is a distinctive contemporary art space rooted in the Somerset landscape. They also have an additional project space in Marylebone, London. It is also a vibrant hub for residencies, exhibitions and education that fosters a spirit of collaboration. This really comes across when you visit. Big thanks to Freeny and Richard for looking after us and being such wonderful hosts.
