We want to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has visited The Arts Quarter since we announced our imminent closure. Your kind words and support have kept us going over these past four weeks.

Times are changing, and sadly, our independent high street and local community hubs are at risk of disappearing just when we need them most. You never truly know the treasures hidden behind a door or window on your local high street. So why not start today, explore somewhere new, strike up a conversation, and you might just discover a new favourite place to create, shop… or even make a new friend.

To all our shelf and wall renters, workshop facilitators, exhibiting artists, and everyone who contributed to our open exhibitions: we cannot thank you enough for being such a special part of our journey. Your creativity has filled our space with colour, joy, and inspiration, touching not only us, but also locals, holidaymakers, and even those visiting from just a few miles away. Please keep making, sharing, and shining through the things you love most.

With love,
Ellen, Helen, Bunny, Caro & Mel

Just a little note to let you know we’ll be closing today at 3pm. We’re all a bit worn out and have plenty to sort over the next few days, so this will be your last chance to pick up a bargain or pop in to say hello before we close our doors for the very last time.

Our perfectly imperfect chairs need a new spot, and this rustic table is also searching for a place to call home.

Why spend a tonne on new when these are ready to takeaway and they cost a fraction of the cost. You can find these in the big sale room.

Our workshop tables have a rugged, industrial style that fits perfectly in a workshop, shed, shared workspace, modern office, or even as a statement piece in a bar. Each table measures approximately 300 x 100 cm. Come and see them for yourself.

These wooden chairs are another fantastic upcycling opportunity, and we have a few available. Don’t dismiss a plain brown chair, with a little creativity, it can be transformed into something unique, beautiful, and practical.

We have plenty of these school high chairs, perfect for an upcycling project! With a splash of paint and a little creativity, they could look amazing in bold, bright colours or even with a unique decoupage finish. They’re very sturdy and feature a solid wooden top, making them both durable and full of potential.

Cheddar Arts Quarter C.I.C

The Arts Quarter (Cheddar Arts Quarter C.I.C) is a new and exciting venture located at the base of Cheddar Gorge. Featuring a large shared studio space for a variety of local artists to work in, three individual studios, a classroom and a shop/gallery where we will be selling high quality art, crafts and work by local Somerset makers.

As a Community Interest Company, we are not for profit, meaning that money raised through our workshops and the shop will be reinvested back into the business and the community. We aim to set up arts opportunities within the local community and to raise the profile of the huge variety of talented artists in Somerset.
