CreateTalk: Touring Art Exhibitions

Westhill’s CreateTalk Touring Faith Exhibition Scheme aims to encourage conversations, enable reflections and inspire action. We have 8 beautiful and original art exhibitions available for free-loan* around the UK.

Hundreds of successful exhibitions have shown us how powerful art can be in exploring themes such as grief, hope, reconciliation, and the environment.

The exhibitions use a variety of different forms of art, including free-standing and wall-mountable work making them suitable for different types of venues. Exhibitions usually last around 4 weeks but this is up to you. Local loans have included 1-day use for special events, small groups and retreat days.

We are careful not to prescribe how you use the exhibitions, as you know your communities best, but our experienced staff members are available to help and advise, and we offer materials including short films, Conversation and Reflection booklets, and activity ideas, for use with your visitors should you wish.

Please look through the links below for more information about the individual exhibitions and please don’t hesitate to contact us for more information or to discuss how we might help with your requirements.
