Art at the Alex

Art at the Alex 'The Alex' (Rugby) is an independent, licensed arts centre with exhibits, events and artist's studio on site. Quirky place to spend time. All art is local art!

Art at the Alex is a venue for artists to work and meet and a licensed cafe which their works adorn. Studios to resident artists Steve Davies (IG: stevedavise1st) and Chris Pegler (IG: peglerpurl) this aims to be a hub for local artists and makers. The Alex was formerly the Alexandra Tavern (and previously the Alexandra Arms). It has a lovely garden and space where the brewery was and these spaces provide great areas to hold extra events. Which it plans to do most weekends through the year.

May is drawing to a close (and summer heat is coming!) so our May exhibitions are coming to an end.

This month we have helped with an exhibition in their showroom - work by Martin Burley, Jane Archer and Steve Davies can be found there. They also have very nice beds - including a round one!

We also have two exhibitions in our own space at The Alex, featuring Steve Davies, Eric Gaskell, Stephen Baker and Gemma Whitford, and usually a stewarding artist at work. 🎨
