Hello – I’m Sue Lim. I opened the blue-ginger gallery in the barn six years ago and it quickly became a showcase for many talented local artists and craftspeople as well as some of the best of British talent and carefully sourced fairly traded crafts from far away.
The gallery is well worth a visit due to its location in the grounds of an old timber framed Herefordshire farmhouse which dates back to the C15th and to the diversity of quality goods on display. Within the main gallery there is also a coffee shop serving light lunches, delicious homemade cakes, and fair-trade tea and fairtrade coffee. All the food is made by me, and as much as possible I use local producers and suppliers for the ingredients. Our small vegetable garden provides salads and herbs throughout the summer.
In addition to the wide ranging and versatile selection of art and craft in the main gallery, you’ll also find handmade contemporary silver jewellery by Carol of Silverfish Designs in the Little Studio next door, and mi-frame picture framing and limited edition prints and images. The garden room is used for Summer House Artists - a showcase for a wide range of local artists and craftspeople to demonstrate and their work. Throughout the year there are special exhibitions, suppers and events at the gallery.
I hope that you will enjoy a flavour of Blue Ginger as you explore the web site, and that you will be able to visit the gallery yourself and enjoy the friendly, welcoming atmosphere and perhaps taste my famous homemade savoury muffins! If you are visiting the Malvern area you can book Bed & Breakfast at Home End Farm and explore the gallery and the beautiful surrounding countryside at your leisure. |
