What's On
A VE and VJ Day Celebration
Our current exhibition is an Open Exhibition of art and memorabilia celebrating the 65th anniversary of the ending of WW II - VE day (8th May) and VJ Day (15th August). On display are memorabilia from the time, kindly lent for the occasion by various local people, and a large number of new original works on the theme created by local artists. The exhibition runs from the 2nd to the 11th June. Just click on the party image above to see some sample images from the exhibition.

What's On In LiverpoolIf you want to know what is going on in the art world in Liverpool visit Art In Liverpool. Run tirelessly by Ian Jackson it covers almost every event large or small. The Actor's StudioThe Liverpool Actors Studio is currently closed. As soon as we have details of the next production we will add the details. Future ExhibitionsSoft Folds - Hard Edges
At first glance his works seem to be constructed from a series of soft folds but a detailed examination reveals hard edges with different materials all brought together to create something new. Geoff has reinvented the role of the canvas to question the relationship between not just fine and popular art but ourselves and the world around us. The exhibition opens to the public on Monday 28th June and runs until Friday 9th July. ComeTogether 2010

For 2010 the Birkenhead Operatic Society staged the musical "Crazy for You" at the Liverpool Empire theatre. As usual we ran an open exhibition for art work based on the show. There were three prizes on offer of £100, £75, and £50, sponsored by Queenie's charity and presented by Herbert of Liverpool at the private view. You can find out who the winners were and see some images of works from the exhibition by clicking on the 'Crazy For You' picture above. Outside In
For this exhibition she focused on figurative and impressionistic works, many of them with Merseyside subjects. Click on the image of Maxine's "Design Pool" above to see more. In her own words:- "I find my inspiration in the familiar, everyday images that surround our environment and landscape and become completely absorbed with their colour, textures and design." |

When you first encounter Geoff Parr's works you see a structure which is a fusion between
contemporary fashion design and painting.
In August, as usual, we are staging our annual open exhibition of Beatles' art.
Create a work on any aspect of the Beatles - their songs, their lives, their philosophy etc.
and of course themselves.
