A new exhibition arrives at the Coffee Stop Cafe, in St Mary’s Market from January – March 2025.

The Art of Oesophageal Cancer is an exhibition of drawings by Ann Wood @annorthernlass that were created during her experience of treatment and recovery of Oesophageal Cancer in 2018.

A selection of drawings that use coloured pencil and fineliner are taken from a book published by Ann that explores her journey and aims to raise awareness of the symptoms and risk factors that can indicate Oesophageal Cancer.

The exhibition will open during less survivable cancers week and will run during February which is Oesophageal Cancer Awareness Month.

The exhibition is open during market trading hours, Monday – Saturday 9am-5pm and is situated behind the Coffee Stop Cafe in St Mary’s Market WA10 1AR.
