An experience you won’t forget

With the three towns of Droitwich Spa, Evesham and Pershore together with nearly 100 villages and hamlets including the beautiful Broadway, visitors can be forgiven for not having explored all the year-round wonders available to them. It’s an area of sheer diversity; not only in its surroundings, but also with its offering meaning it’s a perfect visitor destination.

Whether it’s the award-winning idyllic parks set within close proximity to the wonderfully characteristic towns, or the high streets boasting an array of independent shops offering a unique shopping experience; the escape from the hustle and bustle of major cities is one to be cherished and enjoyed.

The rural nature of the district makes it an ideal setting for walkers and cyclists alike, whilst the area being a horticultural haven makes local food and drink produce a ‘must taste’ experience. Waterways lovers will be spoilt for choice with the River Avon meandering through Evesham and Pershore, and with the canal in Droitwich Spa, boat trips on the water are a must for a relaxing time.

A visit to Worcestershire’s Vale & Spa this Christmas will be an experience you won’t forget, and hopefully one that will make you want to return again and again!

Our ‘Win this Christmas with Worcestershire’s Vale & Spa’ competition with Free Radio Herefordshire & Worcestershire is live too. Thank you so much to all the businesses that have contributed – we’ve gathered a whopping £1,000 worth of prizes! Please share this with your friends and let them know they can enter on Free Radio’s website.

26th November Meet-The-Artist evening with Di Shorleson

The Gallery is pleased to announce its Meet-the-Artist drinks reception on Friday 26th November from 6pm to 8.30pm with local acrylic artist Di Shorleson.

A unique opportunity of a drinks reception with Di Shorleson at The Gallery is limited to space, so please call Chris on 07713 055 999 or email info@thegallerypershore.com to register your interest in advance.


Meet Acrylic Artist Di Shorleson

Friday 26th November 6pm to 8.30pm at The Gallery, 51 High Street, Pershore, WR10 1EU


Artist Di Shorleson

Inspiration for her landscapes comes from having lived in some of the UK’s most fabulous places. Formby in the North West; with its endless natural unspoilt beach and coastline; Sussex with some of the prettiest villages and sea views; and more recently, moving to the beautiful Worcestershire countryside bordering on the Cotswolds.

Di has painted for many years, developing her style along the way and she really enjoys the balance between chaos and control, and many a happy accident! Di absolutely adores texture and drama in atmospheric landscapes and enjoys capturing them in acrylics, watercolours, inks and sometimes a combination of these. The unpredictability of these mediums and the luminosity of her finished pieces create an interesting dynamic, producing experimental and expressive pieces of work.

Perhaps more importantly I love having fun with my materials and lose myself in the pleasure of creating a special piece of art that ultimately collectors will love and treasure.
