One of the more innovative and exciting shop fronts in the High Street is Nucleus.

To quote from their website: ‘NUCLEUS ROCHESTER is a unique temporary retail outlet showcasing a huge array of affordable creations by Medway based artists, designers, musicians, writers, arts graduates and students.’

It’s been fun to pop in regularly as different Medway artists are displaying their work. I think I am correct in saying that this is a one of a kind location where local artists have an audience. The pieces on display are creative, beautiful, stunning and affordable.

I popped in today and found out that they are having an Art Auction on Thursday at 7.00pm with viewing starting at 6.00pm. The timings work great for me as I usually attend Evensong on Thursday, which this week will be over just after 6.00pm, and so I intend to pop along to see what happens and whether I can win with a bid on an original piece of work.

I’m mentioning this here as I wonder whehter they may be others who could be interested.
