located at the back of Farm Shop Cafe – 2 mins drive away.
Susan Badcock Gallery
In a move that owner of Geraldine’s Susan Badcock Studio describes as “an opportunity too good to miss,” Susan Badcock is extending her fine art studio upstairs to a larger premise where it will be rebranded as Susan Badcock Gallery, while a new gallery shop, The Mailroom, will inhabit her existing studio.
The first floor of Geraldine’s iconic Old Post Office building has undergone a major restoration project that has seen the area opened into a light and welcoming gallery space. The multiple apartment-style rooms are a significant attraction for Susan who has plans in place for exhibitions of larger scales of work and a personal studio for her hand-colouring and photography, as well as exhibitions by invited artists.
