B.A.N.G.'s performances are made up of original compositions and arrangements, developed through weekly collaborative community workshops here at TOSH.

'Unseen' Community Art Exhibition

Visit 'Unseen', curated by , the first show in our new exhibition programme. Enjoy drinks and snacks, while discovering diverse work by local artists - from painting and print, to mixed media, ceramics, and more.

With our ongoing commitment to platforming outsider art and overlooked voices here at TOSH, artists were invited to respond to the theme 'Unseen'.

The artists have explored their own experience of feeling unseen, visualised the stories of others - those whose lives, contributions or identities are often ignored - and highlighted the things that quietly slip under the radar in our daily lives.

Some of these works have never been shown or shared, until now.

Join us here in our beautiful heritage space to discover work, support local artists, and celebrate our creative community here in Boscombe.
