- Conquest
Art holds SHOW with VIP's!

-
- "What a fantastic
show", was the word on the streets of Formby this
weekend. Conquest Art (Formby) held a most
interesting display of Art in its Open Day Exhibition at the Luncheon
Club, Formby last Saturday (20th April). The work
produced by disabled artists in and around Formby, no matter how
they painted, by mouth or by foot or by hand the work was of a stupendously
high standard. In addition to the series of
paintings there was a tribute to Mr. Phil Jackman, the senior
tutor, who is recovering from a mayor operation, and other items
such as a copy of The Times dated 5th May 1798, and a Castrol
wall chat of 1925 containing a fascinating list of cars and
motor cycles current at that time. The occasion was graced
by the presence of the Mayor of Sefton, Councilor
Anthony Hill and the Local Members of Parliament, Clare Curtis
Thomas, and such prominent citizens as Mr. N.O.K. Gibbon
(President of Conquest art Formby) Dr. and Mrs. Barbara Yorke
M.B.E. and Mr. Alan Wright, President of the Rotary Club of
Formby.
The chairman extends
profound thanks to a splendid team of volunteer helpers and to all who
kindly supported the event.
