Colourful Souls celebrates the vibrant creativity of the Barrington Farm supported art studio in Walcott, Norfolk, bringing an explosion of colour to Cromer.

Featuring artists working across a range of creative disciplines, the exhibition is united by a shared focus on colour and showcases bold, joyful and inventive work.

Founded in 1988, Barrington Farm is a unique, independent day centre for adults with learning disabilities, offering a wide range of practical and creative activities throughout the year. At the heart of the centre is the Art Barn, a supported studio that has earned an international reputation for the quality and originality of the work produced there.

The spacious, open-plan studio is equipped with a wide variety of materials, enabling artists to explore different media, develop their skills and discover their own creative voices. Around 20 local artists attend regularly, working alongside trained artist facilitators who provide support through a non-intervention approach that encourages independence, personal expression and creative decision-making.

Over nearly four decades, Barrington Farm has nurtured a remarkable community of artists whose work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. The studio remains a place where creativity, individuality and artistic ambition are encouraged and celebrated.
