A retrospective exhibition of drawings and watercolours spanning the years 1978 through to 2009. The inspiration for Raisbeck’s images comes from various sources, be it high Renaissance drawings, Medieval wood cuts, old manuscripts and documents to architectural plans and faded Victorian photographs - any old paper that has something written or printed on it becomes grist to his mill. |

| Flights of Fancy |
| An investigation into the concept of ‘White Cube’ as the contemporary gallery space, by
ten members of Ashford Visual Artists. This intervention is the fruition of a one year
collaboration between artists, resulting in sound, and sculpture, in paper and mixed media
which swarm and swoop, filling the gallery with individual flights of fancy.
Munroe, Jane Richardson, Mary Sampson, Ron Sampson and Carol Stump address
issues around communication, containment, fragility and flight within the framework of the
cube. |

| Specular Reflection: The White Show |
| ‘Specular Reflection: The White Show’ – encompassing light, reflection and the restriction of the colour palette. An exhibition of new work by White Shed artists consisting of painting, sculptures, mixed media and installation works.
‘White is a word often associated with 'blank', but white reflects and absorbs subtle nuances of colour from light itself. The subtlety of white requires close attention, inner reflection and calm - qualities hard to find in a saturated world’
