Creative Winter

An Exhibition of Art, Craft and Photography opened on Friday 30th November running until Sunday 1st December at Frodsham Methodist Church.

The event was organised by Alun Evans, a well known local artist himself, and attracted over 220 entries from over 80 exhibitors from as far afield as Warrington, Chester and Northwich. Although most of the exhibitors were amateur artists, the standard of entries in both artistic skill and presentation was very high. Entries included Paintings in oils, watercolour and mixed media, Photographs as well as Stitchcraft, Patchwork and Quilting. Viewing the exhibition was a feast of colour, texture and form to stimulate the senses and lift the spirits.

The exhibition was opened at 2pm on Friday when our Minister, Rev'd. Denise Harding, welcomed Weaver Vale M.P. Graham Evans who, after a short address in which he said he felt honoured to be asked, declared the event formally open. He then handed over to a group of children from Frodsham C. of E. Primary School who, under the direction of their teacher, Mrs Corradine, entertained us with singing and mime. It was a pleasure to listen to the children's singing talents amid the wonderful artistic skills on display around us.
