The Natural Eye at Stapleford Granary

Stapleford Granary is an Arts Centre built on the vision and values of the Association for Cultural Exchange, a charity whose aim is to foster cultural understanding through education. The 19th century farm was converted in 2009 to provide a theatre, studio space, recording studio and café. The beautiful conversion of the old complex of buildings is a unique, inspiring environment for experiencing music and art.
Over 20 SWLA artists are represented with more than 90 works on show including paintings, drawings, original prints and sculpture.
