Please donate to The Soper Collection
Further donations will be used to expand and enhance the facilities at the Pannett Art Gallery.
Until now the work of the Soper family has been relatively unknown due to the reclusive character of the family and the fact that so much of the artwork was held at the Sopers’ family home.
Our ambition to:
- Provide a space for the Sopers’ incredible artwork – Achieved!
- Enable this East Anglian work to be absorbed into the nation’s cultural heritage – Achieved!
- Educate, inform and inspire future generations to have a love for naturalist art and British wildlife, landscape and history – Will be Achieved!
By providing a permanent home for The Collection we will:
- Display all pieces to the public in rotation – Yes
- Aim to provide an outdoor space that reflects the passions of the artists themselves in terms of their love for our flora and fauna and landscape as well as some of the characteristics of their beloved home ‘Wildings’ – Yes – Pannett Art Gallery’s home is in Pannett Park, ‘a haven of peace and tranquility’.
