Sevenoaks Kaleidoscope Art Gallery
SVAF and The Bridge Art School FAPD Gallery Residence 2025
WORKING ON IT- Work in Progress and Mezzanine exhibition
Tuesday 18 – Saturday 29 March
Everyday day 10:30 – 4
The FAPD residency where the gallery is turned into a studio space for the 48 artists from the Fine Art Practice Development Programme 2024-5 course. Working on their separate projects responding to this year’s fluid title Sometimes, Always, Never for their FAPD gallery exhibition in June.
Last year we had positive feedback from all the artists who experimented, got to know each other better, explored presentation of work in a gallery setting, found new solutions to work and ideas from multiple interactions with both their SVAF peer group and the visiting public.

The Hanging Gardens of Kaleidoscope your SVAF Community Art Project
In deep Winter it is tropical and in full bloom drop into the Mezzanine and explore the Hanging gardens of Kaleidoscope.
The Hanging Gardens of Kaleidoscope our 2024 SVAF Community Project was inspired by
the Jungle paintings of Henry Rousseau. The community has been enthralled by this project and
our thanks go to everyone who has contributed plants, flowers, insects, snakes, animals, birds etc.
The workshops were enthusiastically attended by many families. We owe a big thank you to
lead artists Sarah Cliff and Sue Evans who worked tirelessly with this public facing project
alongside Susanne Beard who led the Kaleidoscope Knit and Natter group, the Otford
Embroidery Club and the Sevenoaks U3A Crochet Group. Also thanks to Sally Eldars who ran
a separate family 3D flower and butterfly workshop.
Now it is time to find your contribution……
