Women of many worlds Art Exhibition

Starting this Wednesday, 4th March, The Grange Art Gallery in Rottingdean is hosting a new spring exhibition titled Women of many worlds. The featured artist is Sarah Drewek, a figurative painter who lives and works in Alfriston. If you have followed her work before, you will know she focuses on the human form, and this latest collection continues that exploration. The show is set to run until the 29th of March, giving us nearly a month to head over to the edge of Brighton to see what she has been working on recently.

The choice of venue is quite specific for this one. The Grange, located on The Green (BN2 7HA), is an early Georgian building that feels a world away from the busier galleries in the North Laine. It is a multi-use space that includes a museum and a tea garden, so the environment is fairly relaxed. Visiting a gallery in a historic house like this usually changes how you interact with the art; it is less of a sterile experience and more of a quiet walk through a building with a lot of its own character. For those who spend time in Rottingdean, it is a familiar landmark that often hosts these types of local cultural events.

Since the exhibition is free to enter, it is an easy one to add to an afternoon out if you are already planning to be in the area. It is listed under the city’s broader cultural and museum categories, aimed at anyone with an interest in contemporary figurative art or local artists from the Sussex area. There are no complex booking requirements or entry fees to worry about—you can just turn up during the gallery's opening hours between the 4th and the 29th. It is a straightforward opportunity to see Sarah Drewek’s perspective on her subjects within the context of a traditional Brighton setting.
