Fishbone Book Club has begun

This evening saw the first meeting of the Fishbone Gallery Book Club - as promised there was good conversation - not all bookish strayed onto films etc & fine(ish) wine. It seems to me that sometimes we have to be told to take the time to read, I certainly can always find something else to do - reading and possibly taking yourself away from your normal day to day seems to be more and more indulgent. I really en joyed talking this evening it was a good night to have...anyway after great debate (well not really - randomly picked from selection!) we choose to read 'Birdsong' by Sebastian Faulks - not the latest but certainly one I never read - so its off the Amazon to buy bulk buys. If you want to come along to the next meeting it would be great to see you...whoever you might be. Have a read and check the website again soon for the date of the next meeting...
BTW Jeff out fishing tonight - not back yet - I know its possible to fish at night but where is the comfort factor - brrrrr.

Gallery closure.

Please note that Jo Powers installation 'Recursion' has now ended and the gallery will be closed until our next show, details of which will be published as soon as we have all the information.

In the meantime Jeff is using the gallery as a studio so that he can get some work done on his own material, something he has been unable to do since we opened the gallery to the public last November.

Thanks,

Judy

Fishbone Gallery

The Fishbone Gallery is something of a rarity. A gallery committed to promoting the diversity of the visual arts of the West Midlands, that supports new artists and encourages them to show work that otherwise might not receive the attention it deserves. We are not primarily a profit making enterprise, and therefore we can afford to show experimental work that would never gain proper exposure through commercial channels. We also host a wide range of community projects and events, clubs and classes, run by specialist practitioners with thorough knowledge of their particular disciplines. We welcome all people of all ages and all cultural backgrounds, to come along and be part of what we do. Our mission is to make art and art practise an integral part of the lives of the people of Longford, and to encourage a broader audience for the visual arts in Coventry and the West Midlands. The gallery is run by Judy Kay and Jeff Hatt
