Bayley Arts Gala 2025: Art Show Success & Thank You Event | Exhibition Open Until Nov 4

The 2025 Bayley Arts Gala Art Show and Thank You Event, was a resounding success, drawing over 200 attendees for a vibrant evening of celebration.

The purpose of the event was twofold: celebration and recognition of the creativity, diversity and powerful community spirit that brings Bayley Arts to life every day. This was also an opportunity to express gratitude to our supporters. The night gave us a platform to thank the many generous donors, businesses, volunteers and partners whose support is vital to Bayley House. Their commitment ensures that Bayley House continues to thrive as a place of connection.

The 2025 exhibition, which was the feature of the Gala, showcases the exciting work produced by Bayley Arts artists who have truly embraced experimental and playful processes this year. The resulting collection is a testament to the value of connection and curiosity, inviting viewers to experience art as social, explorative and above all – fun. The enthusiasm for the work was evident throughout the evening, with 19 pieces of art sold.

Our Gala Art Show is also an evening of recognition for Bayley Artists, who tap into their creativity and work towards submitting pieces to the end of year event. Given the high standard of work and the level of dedication, each year our Art for All award is bestowed upon an artist who has truly inspired. This year, two recipients were announced. Congratulations to Lauren Smith and Gavin Moore. They will both receive mentor sessions with professional artists. This award is funded through donations to Bayley Arts when anyone opts to donate at the time of booking through Humanitix.

Adding to the excitement was the bustling arts market, which saw the official launch of the much anticipated collaboration between artist Louise Taffs and Alperstein Designs, further highlighting the talent within the Bayley House community.

The Gala was a wonderful celebration of achievement, partnership and the art itself is still on display! Don’t miss your chance to experience this unique and incredibly creative exhibition.

The Bayley Arts Gala Art Show is a must see display of talent and expression. We invite you to visit the exhibition, which is on show until Sunday, 4 November.
