Today we had a brilliant time with the wonderful residents and staff at .seaford delivering fun accessible art workshops for their residents!

We had such a great afternoon exploring collage and the residents and their families made some really exceptional artworks. These seasons will play a really important role in supporting the wellbeing and mental health of the residents while also giving them unique activities to engage with alongside visiting family!

Our new Care Home programme is an important part of our new creative health programme in Seaford supporting adults using creativity and helping combat loneliness in our community.

Big thanks to the lovely team at Three Ways Nursing Home who made us so welcome and are working with us on this new programme!

We are already looking forward to our next session!

This June, SCIP invites art lovers to OVERPRINT, a vibrant new exhibition showcasing some of the most exciting names in modern printmaking, illustration, and ceramics. Hosted at the historic Crypt Gallery, the show brings together a SCIP curated selection of acclaimed artists from across the UK for a limited two-week run.

OVERPRINT celebrates the tactile beauty of physical craft. Visitors can expect a diverse range of styles and mediums, from the bold textures of silkscreen and lino prints to contemporary ceramics.

PRIVATE VIEW: Tuesday 2nd June, 6.30pm - 9pm. Please email [email protected] to rsvp.

Featured Artists

The exhibition features a stellar lineup of creative talent, including:

Lottie Farmer
Clare Perkins
Ashley Hutchinson
Lauren Morsley
David Newton
Laura Bird
Pat Edgeley
Amanda Ribbans

Art with a Purpose....

Beyond the gallery walls, OVERPRINT serves a vital community mission. Profits from the sale of artworks will go directly to SCIP, funding their ongoing free community arts programmes. By purchasing a piece of art, visitors are directly investing in the accessibility of the arts within the Seaford and Sussex community.

Find us at The Crypt Gallery from the 3rd - 14th June open Wednesday - Sunday, 10am - 4pm

Get Involved: Free Workshop

In keeping with SCIP’s mission to make art accessible to all, SCIP are hosting a Free Pop-in and Print Workshop on Saturday, June 6th, from 10 am to 2 pm. No booking is required, and the session is suitable for all ages and skill levels—perfect for families and aspiring makers.
