A year ago, Hannah launched the Young Collectors Club, building on her work with Amanda and Lotte at Fen Ditton Gallery. Our first show of the autumn celebrates this anniversary with a collection of new works, selected by Lotte and Hannah focussing on emerging artists Otis Blease and Felix Higham (introduced to the gallery in Voices of Drawing last year) and works by Joanna Cohn and Johannah Muriel, who are showing their prints with us for the first time.
Modern Art for Modern Living
14 - 22 September 2019
In an era of technology, the inherent importance of art in our lives is ever-more apparent. The benefits of switching off and losing yourself in a work of art that has captured your imagination are unrivalled... but where to begin?
You are invited to view this collection of contemporary artwork and prints that explore and enhance modern life.

Birds
8 - 23 June 2019
Fen Ditton Gallery is excited to announce its next exhibition celebrating the importance of birds.
Birds form an integral part of the landscape and soundscape of our daily lives. Their familiar sounds and comings and goings bring pleasure and interest to people all around the world, and though they often hover at the edge or our vision, birds provide the opportunity to celebrate our deep connections with all of nature.
The exhibition is an opportunity to view a range of works inspired by encounters with birds by talented artists who study their habits, form and character.
For time immemorial, birds have been used as environmental indicators. They play a vital role in monitoring the health of our planet, and BirdLife International based in the new David Attenborough Building in Cambridge, maintains the Red List for birds on behalf of IUCN, and works at the forefront of bird conservation research, policy and practice. The BirdLife Partnership is active in over 120 countries.
One of BirdLife’s active global programmes is called ‘Forests of Hope’ and focuses on the challenges of sustaining forests which are key habitats for may threatened bird species, as well as other fauna and flora. Forests are also important to human communities, providing a wide range of livelihoods.
In support of Forests of Hope, the Fen Ditton Gallery will donate a percentage of exhibition sales to the international work undertaken by BirdLife.
