PATIENTS, staff and visitors to the Royal Berkshire Hospital can enjoy pacing up and down the corridors, not out of boredom, but a love of art.
Members of the Reading Guild of Artists is holding its annual charity art exhibition, with the Craven Road healthcare centre turned into a gallery.
Among those who have work on show include Kerry Webb, a recent ‘wild card’ contestant on Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year.
Sukhu Sidhu, voluntary services manager at the RBH, says she looks forward to exhibitions as the art is of the highest standard.
And The RGA’s Exhibition Secretary, Trish Roberts, knows that eye-catching art works displayed well cannot fail to lift the spirits of NHS staff, as well as visitors who find themselves at the Royal Berkshire Hospital.
The show opened last week, and runs all the way through to Saturday, April 29.
All the pieces on show, on the second floor link corridor and in the maternity block, have been created by the art group, and are also fore sale.
For each one sold, 25% of the price will go to the Royal Berks Charity, which helps the hospital.
