Sea-themed art exhibition to be shown at Manningtree gallery

The North House Gallery in Manningtree is set to host a solo exhibition featuring more than 40 works by artist Isabella Dyson. The show, titled "Isabella Dyson: Paintings," focuses on the transient nature of the sea and weather, utilizing a muted color palette and a mix of oil, acrylic, and pastel. The collaboration began serendipitously when the artist visited the gallery and showed her portfolio to the staff on her phone, leading to her immediate inclusion in a group show and this subsequent solo presentation.

Self-generated income for UK museums ‘can only go so far’ in filling gaps left by funding cuts, report says

A new report from the National Audit Office (NAO) warns that state-funded UK museums are reaching a breaking point as they attempt to offset significant government funding cuts with self-generated income. Analyzing 15 major institutions including the British Museum and Tate, the report reveals that while self-generated revenue rose by 53% since 2021-22, it remains highly volatile and susceptible to external factors like tourism costs and membership churn. Despite a recent £31m funding boost from the DCMS, over half of these institutions report being in a worse financial position than they were three years ago.
