Discover Local Art at 'Trinity Art Exhibition'
Picture by artist Anton Dolders.
AFFORDABLE local art can be hard to find, but the 'Trinity
Art Exhibition' brings local talent and the community together. The 52nd
'Trinity
Art Exhibition' will take place over 13 May to 14 May 2017, at the Parish Centre at Holy Trinity
Church, on Hoghton Street, Southport.
Part of the Trinity Arts festival:- 'The Trinity Art Exhibition'
has been a popular annual fixture on Southport's cultural calendar. It has
served as a platform for new and established artists alike to get their work
shown in Southport. This year:- 'The Trinity Art Exhibition' will be a stop on the Southport Art Trail.
"Over the years we have seen the event grow and seen some great talent
emerge. We also love welcoming back well known local artists year after year.
We're also very pleased to be a part of the Southport Art Trail this year." said Robert McCrimmon, Trinity Art Exhibition's event organiser.
The event is a great opportunity to engage with local artists and to buy unique
pieces of art for your home. Previous years have seen popular local artists such
as Glen Keen, Anton Dolders, J.W. Fairclough and Polly Birchall showcase their
works with some returning with new works this year.
While the exhibition focuses on paintings and photography, crafts are also a
growing part of the event. Ceramic artist, Ally Charnock, will be demonstrating
her skills over the weekend and other crafters will be there selling their
wares.
If you are a budding artist, crafter or photographer there is still time to take
part. Please go to our Facebook
