THE NEXT BIG THING

New Art exhibitions in the Waterside to view from Friday 1st of July.

’Tin City' is the mixed media brainchild of Bath resident Jo Nye.

Here you will find a variety of handmade recycled tin shrines, diorama, found object decorative items and home wares produced under the Tin City banner.

Inspired by Jo's love of folk art, religious icons and reliquaries, music & film, pulp fiction and pinup art. Each tin shrine or diorama piece in particular is either unique or part of a stated limited edition set and can comprise of recycled tin, carefully resourced and hand prepared acetate imagery, upcycled broken vintage & modern costume jewellery, found objects, and scrap store materials to bring you pieces to worship and adore! The broken and unloved are welcome here!

ABOUT US

Widcombe Social Club is a non-profit community focused venue catering classes and events for both local and regional groups. We are a registered charitable organisation and host various community events throughout the year - we also work in partnership with local charities to provide a space from which to plan, network, and fund-raise for their causes.

The WSC has been an important part of the area's heritage since it's inception in 1899 - originally found at 25 Claverton Buildings on Widcombe's high-street as the 'Widcombe Workmen’s Club', it officially became 'Widcombe Social Club' after moving to its new and current premises in 1970.

After a multi-million pound redevelopment deal was completed in 2012, the face of the Social Club (and with it Widcombe Hill) was changed forever - re-opening in 2016, the 'New Club' is a light and modern venue which still holds true to its historic roots, retaining its membership system in a more inclusive form and acting as a hub for community-ran events and providing entertainment with local audiences in mind.
