Pelican artists are redefining who gets to make, exhibit and lead contemporary art.

A new show ‘Printed Voices’ will be at Green Hill Arts Gallery from 11th September to 31st October. 

Printed Voices is an exhibition of original letterpress printworks, reflecting the voice of marginalised artists from the learning disabled community.

Green Hill Arts has been given the extraordinary privilege of presenting the work of a unique and excluded group of new artists in this show. We are partnering with the Exeter-based Pelican Project which enables these artists to independently compose, print and sell original works. 

The letterpress prints are created using the world's first wheelchair-powered printing press, conceived, designed and developed by Pelican artists working alongside professional printmaker George Barron and supported by Dartmoor Preservation Association and Positive Light Projects. The exhibition brings together bold text-based prints, laser-cut relief self-portraits, documentary photography and traditional letterpress materials, exploring both the heritage and future of printmaking.  

More than an exhibition of prints, Printed Voices is a celebration of creativity, authorship and community partnership. Created through collaboration and driven by the voices of Pelican artists, it demonstrates what becomes possible when barriers are removed and artists are empowered to lead. Messaging, colour and process are brought together by the artists, enabling their personal thoughts and words to be shared with audiences. Powerful, poignant and witty, these pieces are a delight. 

Green Hill Arts is open 10:00am – 4:00 pm, Wednesday to Saturday. Entry is free. The gallery is located at the top of Fore Street, Moretonhampstead, near the Parish Church, with parking available in Court Street and Station Road car parks.

Join us for a FREE hands-on creative session exploring the ideas, processes and possibilities behind Printed Voices.

Come along to experiment, create and discover your own creative voice through print. Whether you’re an experienced artist or simply curious to try something new, this is an opportunity to get involved, make a poster and connect with the ideas at the heart of the exhibition.

Come and make your mark.

The Red Dress by Kirsty Macleod is coming to Green Hill Arts!

In Summer 2027, for four weeks, this internationally celebrated artwork, will make its first-ever journey to Dartmoor. As a small rural gallery, we are honoured to host the dress.

Since 2009, The Red Dress has travelled the world as a global collaborative artwork, bringing together hundreds of contributors, many from marginalised or underrepresented communities, who share their stories through stitch. Together, these personal stories form a powerful collective work.

We look forward to welcoming those new to the project, as well as followers of its journey. We also hope to build a programme of local workshops and community activities inspired by its themes.

More details coming soon!
