Help us to show the Soper art to the world

Pannett Art Gallery will be doing exactly this

The Soper Collection, being the largest collected works of Soper family art and also home to a wide variety of memorabilia, paints a detailed historical picture of the artists from the late 19th century through wartime Britain and into the 20th century.

By creating a permanent home for The Collection, The Gallery will be providing public access to the little known, but much revered, genius of the Soper family. Artists, children and art, history and wildlife-lovers alike will be able to learn from the work of true masters of their craft. Artists who, at their very core, were experts in expressing the life and movement of the natural world.

But we needed your help to get there… Yes – wonderful help has enabled this but future help will enhance facilities.
