This is a temporary blog to record the Art display at the Shrine, Whinney Heys Road, Blackpool.
This exhibition is being created especially for Heritage Weekend - Friday 12th, Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September 2014.
Those of you who know me, understand how passionate I am about bringing artists together and creating opportunities for all artists to exhibit. I hope that this exhibition, despite it's lack of budget, is a lovely community experience for both artists and visitors.
The Shrine is such a magnificant building, although sadly needing some TLC. I feel that art is given a chance to breathe in this space as the building is so vast. It seems to take on a whole new life. Being placed next to other artists work, some of whom you may or not know, helps to establish a feeling of a huge group family exhibition, each piece helping the next, inspiring another and hopefully fulfilling its destiny to be displayed as pride of place in someone's house.
In return visitors get the opportunity to see and support both local artists and an important Blackpool heritage building.
