Event Summary
Event Description
This exhibition brings together four Barnsley-based artists: Ailish Treanor, John Ledger, Kelly Rankin and Mark Evans. Through the support from Axis, a UK-based charity who champion and support contemporary artists, they were able to occupy an empty office building on Regent Street, throughout the summer of 2026.
That empty building became a temporary studio or "meanwhile space", where these artists, diverse in their use of materials and subject matter, were able to play, create, make mistakes, and work things out; culminating in the work now being shown. meanwhile… considers how art is made in moments of time, wherever possible, and in the spaces in between.
Neither the creation of the work featured in meanwhile…, or the exhibition itself, would be possible without the support from Axis and Barnsley Council, both of which we are so very grateful.
Launch: Friday 2 October, 5pm - 8pm, free entry
Opening times: 2 October - 2 November 2026, 9am - 4pm weekdays, free entry
