Title: "Art from the Parks" Exhibition by Sarah Morley [15-29 March 2014]
Post by: admin on February 16, 2014, 04:25:22 PM
Local artist Sarah Morley is putting on an art exhibition at Marple Library from 15 to 29 March - to raise awareness and hopefully some funds for the present project run by the Friends of Marple Memorial Park, which is raising money for a new skateboard park for the park. There will be a launch event at the start of the exhibition on 15 March.

Sarah is a local artist, living near Marple, and has a studio in Vernon Mill, Stockport. The art featured in the exhibition will show different views and aspects of local parks, including those in and around Marple. Sarah first became interested in this subject matter when the Council was consulting on making cutbacks to the local parks last year and she thought it would be great subject for some paintings, hopefully getting people more engaged with the wonderful and varied parks that we have around Stockport.

This is a reminder about Sarah Morley's "Art in the Park" Exhibition in support of Marple Memorial Skate Park Development Project that will run from Saturday 15 to Saturday 29 March in Marple Library.

Please go along and support the launch of this exhibition at 12 noon on Saturday 15 March.

It would be great if people, groups and organisations who have already supported the Skatepark Project could come along for the launch too.

Sarah's Art from the Parks" Exhibition has got off to a good start but we are hoping for more visitors as the event reaches its midway point on Saturday.

To give you a taster of what's on display the Friends of the Park web site has been updated with some photos taken by Arthur Procter earlier in the week.
