A.P.E. Gallery
Available Potential Enterprises, Ltd. is located across the river from Bramble Hill Farm in Northampton.  Founding Director Gordon Thorne has been, for over 30 years, interested in maintaining spaces for artists to work, much as he has been interested in preserving farmland for farming.  A.P.E. artists have created site specific work at Bramble Hill Farm, and Farm personnel have showcased work in the A.P.E. space. Both organizations are by intent linked in their missions and values, despite the surface differences in their enterprises.
