EVENTS R A I N BOW RO O M Old Royal British Legion Club, Middlesbrough P ints were swapped for paint when Middlesbrough’s former Royal British Legion Club was transformed into The Rainbow Room as local artist Hannah Campion served up her first hometown solo exhibition and installation. Once the favoured drinking establishment of Middlesbrough’s proud military veterans, the Park Road North venue called last orders in 2011 after membership numbers plummeted. Experienced artist Hannah invited art-lovers and social club regulars alike to raise a glass to her exhibition. Designed to “blur the lines between painting, sculpture and installation”, the Rainbow Room was the result of a year-long project to create a series of new artworks that are just part of the unique installation.
