Art Exhibition

As the Campaign to Protect Rural England marks its 100th anniversary, we’re unveiling an inspiring new art exhibition at the Amanda Aldous Fine Art Gallery near Basingstoke.

About the exhibition

Featuring a colourful mix of artistic styles and mediums, the exhibition reflects the deep connection between people and place – a connection CPRE has championed for a century.

But this exhibition is more than a celebration – it’s a call to action. All proceeds will help raise vital funds to support CPRE Hampshire’s ongoing work to safeguard the countryside for generations to come.

Private View: don’t miss our exclusive private viewing of the CPRE Centenary Art Exhibition on Friday 15th May. Tickets are £25 and include complimentary drinks and canapés.

Opening Times: the exhibition will be open to the public on:

  • Saturday 16th May from 10am – 4pm
  • Sunday 17th May from 10am – 4pm
  • Monday 18th May from 10am – 1pm

Location: Amanda Aldous Fine Art Gallery, Middlewood House, Weston Corbett, near Basingstoke, Hampshire, RG25 2PB.

Guided Walks: Alongside the exhibition, we’ll be hosting guided walks on 17th & 18th May through the surrounding countryside to experience the landscapes that inspired the artists.

Call for artists

We’re inviting local artists to take part in a brand-new exhibition celebrating the beauty and heritage of the Hampshire countryside.

We welcome paintings in all mediums, sculpture, ceramics, jewellery, glass and textiles – anything that captures the essence of Hampshire’s natural beauty and rural heritage.
