Art of our Schools - celebrating the creativity of Rugby's young people

Something Old, Something New - Alchemy
6 - 17 October 2026
The Floor One Gallery
Alchemy is a local group that meet monthly to discuss all aspects of art and art history. As practising artists, the group always looks forward to its annual opportunity to share their own work too.
The theme for this year’s exhibition, “Something Old, Something New”, was, in part, an invitation to members both to create new works and to draw from each of our extensive back catalogues. We each present a mixture of both.
Some of the group’s very newest pieces derived from a recent discussion on artists who have created mobiles. This presented many exciting creative challenges, but as ever we have really enjoyed putting together this diverse exhibition and very much hope you will enjoy your visit.
