INTRODUCING OUR NEW CURATOR

The gallery is pleased to announce that Hugh Oldham is taking over again after a break of 4 years as Curator, although he has always been in the background as our intrepid climber of ladders and setting up sculptures.  When not curating Hugh can often be seen on the race track with his precious Rizzo Riley in Historic Racing.
Our  wonderful curator Joy Engelman is leaving us to again concentrate on her arts career and will be having a solo at the gallery opening on 19th July this year.  Joy has been a great addition to the team for the last few years and has helped bring the gallery to its current standard.  We thank her for all her efforts.
