Wivenhoe has long been renowned for attracting artists of all types, but it is a rare and special occasion when you get twelve people from very different disciplines all exhibiting at one show.  This is precisely what is going to happen this April with the opening of an exhibition at the Boat House in Alma Street displaying arts as diverse as pottery, photography, paintings, prints, sculpture, abstract reliefs and woodwork.

Some of the exhibitors will be familiar names to anybody interested in the arts locally, whereas others will have travelled some distance.  Ian Hay, Mick Smee and Pam Dan have exhibited their work over many years, but this is an exciting opportunity to view new paintings by them all, along with those of Cath West, who has lived in Wivenhoe for many years.  Ted Atkinson, another Wivenhoe resident of longstanding, will be displaying his prints and Simon Dan and Tim Multon their photographs.  Potters Eddie Dan and Jill Christie (who normally exhibits her work in the north-east) will be displaying their pottery along with sculpture by Lesley Carruthers.  Completing this wide spectrum of exhibitors will be Sarah Dean who works in wood, and Andrea Vaughan who produces abstract reliefs.

Three of the artists share a surname, which is no coincidence.  Pam Dan’s two sons, Simon and Eddie, will both be exhibiting with her for the first time, which is something of an uncommon occurrence in the art world.

No matter what your preferences, this exhibition promises to cater for all tastes and is an opportunity which should not be missed.  Refreshments will be available and the artists look forward to seeing you there.
