Meet our speakers:What's Outsider Art?Outsider art refers to artwork created by self-taught or non-traditionally trained artists, often outside the mainstream art world. These artists typically work without formal education, art world connections, or regard for conventional artistic trends. The term is often associated with highly original, raw, and deeply personal artistic expressions. About Ron's PlaceRon's Place is a unique and extraordinary example of outsider art located in Oxton, Birkenhead in Wirral. This former flat was the home of self-taught artist Ron Gittins from 1986 until his passing in 2019. During his residency, Ron transformed the interior into a fantastical environment inspired by ancient civilizations, covering almost every surface with murals and sculptures, including expansive murals depicting Greco-Roman and Egyptian characters, underwater scenes, and remarkable three-dimensional fireplace sculptures shaped like a roaring lion and a minotaur's head. ​ Ron's Place was granted Grade II listed status by Historic England, making it the first example of outsider art to receive such recognition in the UK. The property is now owned by the Wirral Arts and Culture Community Land Trust (WACCLT), which aims to preserve and share Ron' legacy with the public. ​ Currently, Ron's Place is closed to the public to allow for essential restoration work. Updates on the project's progress and information on how to support the preservation efforts can be found on our website. Ron's Place virtual tour can be found here.
