2019: The Year We Turned 20!

Two decades of expressive and exploratory art, promoting a better understanding of mental illness to the wider community 


As another year comes to a close, and a new one begins, it seems fit to reflect on the past year. 2019 marked Centrepieces 20th anniversary! And what a successful twelve months it has been for our ever-blossoming charity.

To celebrate the evolution of Centrepieces over the past two decades, artists engaged in workshops and projects, focusing on the theme of 'journeys'; in suit of the journey the charity has taken itself.

One of the most notable changes in 2019 has been the opening of our 'Centrepieces Pop-Up'. In partnership with East Street Arts, an organisation that prides itself on providing space for artists, we have taken over the old Argos space (which apparently hasn't quite got through to some of the general public who frequently enter ArTgos mistakenly) . The pop-up location provides our artists with studio, workshop and exhibition space. It has also been an excellent facility for our annual auction, and various other events throughout the year - working collaboratively with the Young Adults Project from Bexley Mind and hosting an arts and crafts fair.
