Art Exhibitions

Our Art Exhibition will take place this year in Paisley Abbey from Thursday 19th April until Tuesday 15th May.
We also have a permanent gallery, mostly made up of prints in the price range £25 - £400 in the Hospice itself.  This is open to the public throughout normal business hours.

As part of our 30th birthday celebrations this year over 3000 primary schoolchildren from our community are currently entering an art competition. There is going to be an exhibition in the Hospice after the easter school holidays to which everyone will be most welcome.

There is a permanent gallery of prints for sale at the Hospice featuring different local artist's work.

Overseas Challenges

There are two ways in which you can support us through participating in an Overseas Challenge event.

The first is to join us in one of our own organised trips. In previous years we have taken parties to Everest Base Camp, Machu Picchu, the Great Wall of China, the Gobi Desert and most recently, Longbok in Indonesia which took place in October.

The second way is to join an open trip which is made of of people fundraising for different charities. The advantage of this is that there is a huge range of choice available to you on an ongoing basis so we could probably meet all requests with regards to location. Please
contact us if you would like to find out more.
