Not just
an art gallery: - Fine Art, Creative Workshops and Special
Events
If you're looking
for a place that has one of the best, uninterrupted views across the
Tyne Valley, ample adjacent parking, in beautiful surroundings, 1 mile
north off the A69, 14 miles from Newcastle, then fifiefofum is the place
for you.
fifiefofum exhibits
paintings, ceramics, glass, sculpture, woodcraft, jewellery, prints,
giclées and more as well as showcasing a diverse programme of
exhibitions. The
gallery runs a wide portfolio of workshops and courses ranging from
proggy rag rug making to digital photography and raku ceramics and hosts
corporate and private meetings and special events.In addition they operate
a giclée printing service for small quantity, limited edition
runs.
Sue set up the fi-fie-fo-fum
gallery with her husband Roy Sturgeon in 2003, and Sue's daughter Lucy
is the gallery manager who, when time permits, makes jewellery for sale
in the Gallery. The 3 of them have gradually built up the business with
an emphasis on sustainability and diversification of rural life. They
are expanding the remit of the gallery by offering creative therapy
for the ultimate day out.
Roy is a photographer
concentrating on light, colour, form and texture, involving ordinary
subjects that go unnoticed in everyday life. All of the digital images
are 'as found' and are not contrived in any way. Sue is a painter and
there is a great synergy between their endeavors.
