Timed to coincide with the beauty of mid autumn, recycling and reusing is the theme of our current exhibition.
What is most pleasing as you reach the top of the stairs is the overall similarity in tone and hue from an interesting mix of media....
A Forest of Trees forged from gilded iron by our very own Roger Lee
Pauline Strong's intricate and shimmering hand stitched quilt
Delicate thrown porcelain by Sue Gorman
"Autumn " is on display until Saturday November 22nd
and, unsurprisingly, is swiftly followed by our habitually spectacular (in other words do not miss it!) Christmas Show-
when, I am most reliably informed, the Upper Gallery will be transformed into an "ENCHANTED FOREST" where you can explore beneath the sparkling branches to find a dazzling array of unique artist made gifts...
(Soo, I can do you bed and breakfast - well ...cornflakes anyway!)
So please, do join us on Saturday November 29th between 10am and 5pm for not only mince pies and liquid refreshment, but also live seasonal music performed by Lincolnshire Ceilidh Band FANNY POWER and the MICKEY MONEY BOYS, featuring our multi talented Bridget Skanski-Such, not on her machine, but playing her fiddle...
AND AS the season changes, we have had a complete redisplay of members and all other work in the lower gallery - what never fails to surprise is the subtle change of space and light downstairs each time we recreate order from the complete and utter chaos of moving and rehanging the entire contents!
P.S.
Apologies for my occasional back view as you step into the Upper Gallery on assorted days this month, but, engaged as I am in precision signwriting (at Volume 10), I may well be dealing swiftly with an unscheduled blob of paint before I am able to glance up and dispense my usual cheery greeting.
R.B.
