Autumn fairs and festivals

RHEGED CENTRE • PENRITH • CA11 0DQ RHEGED.COM • 01768 868000

to Rheged’s Food, Fairs, Film and Exhibitions programme.

As the nights draw in and the live streaming of ballet, theatre and opera returns to Rheged, so too does the wealth of fairs and festivals which focus around food, art, craft and antiques. This is the time of year when outdoor adventure films and talks are a key part of our evening programme, and new for this year is the Brit Rock Film Tour

by Alistair Lee and a caving evening. Our daytime cinema programme includes two new 3D films, Pandas: Back to the Wild and D-Day 1944. The latter is part of a programme of lectures and films which run alongside our main gallery exhibition for the autumn - The Art of Remembering, which asks about our emotional connection with the First World War in a new contemporary art exhibition by 12 British artists. Finally this season celebrates our Cumbrian artistic talent through a C-Art at Rheged pocket exhibition and sculpture trail, the Lake Artists Society Exhibition and Cumbrian Contrasts.

Housed under a unique grass roof, Rheged is a building of architectural merit. With a gallery, IMAX-style cinema, individual shops, cafés, a brand new cookery school and beauty spa, plus activities for children, we very much hope you enjoy your visit to Rheged.

Free entry and free parking!

THE ART OF REMEMBERING

This September, Rheged brings together the work of 12 British artists for The Art of Remembering, an exhibition that asks what emotional connection remains to the First World War and how we have memorialised the conflict over the past 100 years. Funded by Arts Council England and the Heritage Lottery Fund, the exhibition features new work and special commissions by artists selected from a national call out.

10.30am-4.30pm • Free

If you like this you may also like our other Art of Remembering events. D-Day 1944 3D and a series of WW1 lectures and feature length films including Paths of Glory and Lawrence of Arabia.
