We said ‘We Will Be Back’ and thanks to the truly heroic efforts of the trustees of our charity, and the vital support of key local & national funders, after 8 months of closure, we are thrilled to be able to reopen The Plough. With social distancing & covid precautions in place, plus live streaming of some events, it will be new to all of us and as safe as we can possibly make it. Please come back! We can’t wait to see you.
Here's a preview of what's coming up. Events should be listed and bookable on the website from 10am on Sat 17th.
Exhibitions at The Plough
The Plough's new exhibition programme kicks off with a mixed show of a few of the artists who have a long history with the Plough and a sample of the artists who will be showing here in 2021. They include Merlyn Chesterman, Philip and Frannie Leach, Petra Freeman, Bill Stewart and many more. Then on Thurs 3 Dec we start the 2020 The Plough Christmas Craft Fair. Whilst it won’t be as crowded as usual, there will still be a wonderful selection of varied crafts from local makers on display. For further details please see our website.
