Bookings for our annual open art exhibition 'A Spot on the Wall' 2025/26 are now open

Every year The Station gathers together a fantastic range of talented artists and photographers and craftspeople for our annual exhibition A Spot on the Wall. Whether the artist is a first time exhibitor, or they have been exhibited for years, as a profession or hobby, their work sits side by side on the walls of the beautiful old railway building.

Artists pay for a 'spot', where they display their work alongside an array of other artists. As a piece of art is sold from the artist's spot, they replace it with another piece, and so the exhibition is constantly changing. All artwork in the exhibition can be purchased from The Station Shop.

The exhibition will run from Thursday 4th December 2025 - Wednesday 14th January 2026, giving you a full 6 weeks for you to showcase your work to our thousands of visitors over the busy Christmas and New Year period.  As always, it will be a wonderful collaboration of artists from across the spectrum of amateur to professional.  There is no application process - while spaces last you are invited to book your 'spot' directly and secure your part in this special exhibition.  Click here to read the booking terms and conditions.

For hanging work, each artist is able to book up to 3 spots, at £85 per spot.  One cabinet may be hired per artist (£150 per cabinet) for non-hanging work - we have very limited availability and they will be allocated on a 'first come, first served' basis.  Please read the Booking Terms document in full for all the details.

Once you are satisfied with the terms you can book your spot directly via our simple online booking form.  Please see the Booking Terms document for payment details.  You will not be invoiced - you are required to settle your full balance via bank transfer as detailed within 7 days of submitting your booking form in order to secure your place.  Bookings without the accompanying payment within 7 days will be cancelled.
