Brolly Good Time

"Singing In The Rain", parasols shielding you from the summer heat, the irritating foibles of umbrellas in the winter wind, in fact anything you can think of about umbrellas is what you can see in our opening show for 2005. All over Merseyside artists, with their imaginations at fever pitch, are worked to produce original works around these indispensable objects. If you click on the picture above you'll be able to see the exhibition in the final stages of being set up.

The exhibition is open Monday to Friday between 12 and 4.00 pm from Tuesday 8th until Friday 25th February. For details on how to get there see How to Find Us
