Our New Ceramic Installation at Chilvers Coton Heritage Centre
We are delighted to share our latest piece of artwork at Chilvers Coton Heritage Centre, supported by Art Friends Warwickshire.
In April 2024, we were delighted to unveil our ceramic art installation at Chilvers Coton Heritage Centre in Nuneaton. Nuneaton Escape created this beautiful piece with Artist Ros Ingram to celebrate the people and heritage of Nuneaton. We were honoured to be visited by the Mayor of Nuneaton, Martin Walsh, who unveiled our installation, which is on display, pride of place, at the entrance of the Heritage Centre. A huge thank you to Art Friends Warwickshire for supporting this project and a huge congratulations to our very own Nancy Adams for devising and leading on this powerful project. Thank you to the brilliant Ros Ingram for all her hard work and thank you to John Burton and the team at Chilvers Coton Heritage Centre for all your support. Thank you as always to our creative community in Nuneaton: the artwork is simply fabulous and really showcases your creativity, talent and local pride.

Nuneaton Escape Bookshelf: Peggy's Shelf
Participants attending Escape Arts Nuneaton Escape community group worked with Artist Jonny Nicholds on the Double Negative project. The group decided that they would want to use this theme to show their real selves and speak their hidden truths. In discussions, we decided that a library was the ideal setting for showcasing their stories and memories. Each member created a shelf housing book spines which are personal to them. This is Peggy's shelf.
