Current ExhibitionsWe currently have two exhibitons. Both started on the 23rd June and will run to the 3rd of July open 12 - 4 Monday to Friday. Pop Art Reloaded "Pop art Reloaded" relates closely to contemporary living and the modern desire to express one's self through a purchased lifestyle influenced by sex appeal or fashion. Stephen's large, bold pieces of modern art are a move on his part away from his impressionistic roots to tackle the canvas in a completely original way.

Recent Exhibitions
JFS (Works for You)An exhibition by three established local artists - June Lornie, Frank Hendry and Stan Cummings with "Works for You". Click on JFS Link to see samples from the exhibition. June is drawn to both the textures and colours of different materials using exotic fabrics, gold leaf, diamante, acrylic and pastel, in fact anything she thinks would enhance her work, to produce her highly decorative and dramatic pictures. Frank has exhibited for many years in Liverpool and in the Academy, his scenes of Ireland, the Lake District and, of course, Liverpool especially the docks and pictures of the Blitz. Stan, at one time a glass-blower and sculptor, has since retiring devoted his time to painting, and produces many works, some of them showing the beauty of Canada. 42nd Street
