During December 2018 at The Stroud Subscription Rooms, Stroud my husband Ray Hedger and I held an exhibition Together - we raised £300 pounds for The Children's Leukaemia Association - we thank everyone for their generous donations.

During Summer 2016 I had the privilige of working with SoMAC as part of the Art in the City Project in Gloucester. I worked with an amazing group called Increase The Peace - ITP. With them I started a large Roman Style Mosaic based on the History of Gloucester. It is now back in my studio where I am currently completing the mosaic ready for installation in the Spring of 2017.
I am enjoying working on my second Hare commission in the Roman Style, copy from the Pavement shown in The Corinium Museum, Cirencester. Here is the first one I did, which is now in a Private garden in Cirencester. http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/chedworth-roman-villa/things-to-see-and-do/events/
