Easingwold and District Art Society Annual Art Exhibition...

The Easingwold and District Art Society’s annual art exhibition was held at The Galtres Centre over the weekend of the 18th and 19th October.

We had a wonderful turn out, with over 500 visitors.

The society were so grateful to all who attended and were delighted with the numerous positive comments about the high standard of art on display.

Much appreciation to all the volunteers who helped over the weekend, including The Galtres team who set up the exhibition boards and ran the café. Without them, the event would not have been possible.

The local art society also give thanks to those who gave up their time to steward and manage the raffle.

This year, the raffle was in aid of St Monica’s Hospital. Locals raised a magnificent £460. Much appreciation to everyone who bought a ticket.

Outwood Academy and Easingwold Primary also exhibited over the weekend.

It was lovely to see the work done by the students and we hope this will inspire them to continue with their artistic endeavours.

Appreciation to Nick Cuthbert, a former Head of Art at Easingwold School, for having the tricky job of judging and awarding prizes to the students. We congratulate everyone who took part.

Everyone loved featuring the self-portraits and pet portraits done by the younger children and were so pleased to see so many come in to proudly show their families.
