This coming weekend (March 10th), sees the opening of a new art gallery in Morecambe’s Arndale shopping centre.
‘Is a new art gallery in Morecambe another white elephant?
‘White Elephant Contemporary Art’ hope not! The gallery opens with a preview of ‘Little Man Your Time is Now’ on Saturday 10th March at 4.00 pm.
The opening show features work from the Kondras Kollective and Hungarian artist Oulan Nagardo, with the support of the ‘Rabo Karabekian Foundation for the Arts’, ‘East Street Arts‘ and the ‘Arndale Centre for Cultural Consumerism’. The gallery, based in Morecambe’s Arndale Centre, will be open Fridays and Saturdays and by appointment for the month. The gallery will continue thereafter with a programme of rolling art exhibitions.’
We look forward to sharing a glass of wine with you at the red carpet launch on Saturday, between 4pm and 6pm.
Talking about how the show came about Paul explains that ‘Little Man’ was inspired by the discovery of an ancient, two-inch-tall figure, during house renovations and examines the possibilities we all have for, both, evil and good.
East Street Arts are based in Leeds and are committed to turning unused retail and business spaces over for cultural advancement of the arts.
