SERCHIA Gallery and New Journo are delighted to present The Art of Giving. Now in its second year, The Art of Giving is a new approach to seasonal shopping in the form of a Modular Festive Market. Join founders Christine Serchia and Emily Birkett, respectively, to celebrate the season, championing independent British brands and artists with timelessly designed gifts in a low-key setting. Located in Bristol, the gallery will act as a shop floor showcasing a carefully curated selection of highly coveted brands, personally chosen by the curatorial duo.

The pop-up event challenges the perception of consumerism, offering a more tailored, considered outlook on gifting. It’s about the ceremony and rituals you share with others rather than the product itself: interactions, utilitarianism, and sentimentality, with quality and beauty taking front and centre. A small gathering will be held on Friday, in addition to the regular weekend opening hours, as a chance to meander the gallery on an evening and chat with the organisers, surrounded by ambient music, a live performance by Suzi Macgregor @suzimacg, the most delicious cocktails in a can with special thanks to our sponsor MOTH @mothdrinks, baked goods and festive scents.
