Opening Night Of Leigh Community Art Group's Annual Exhibition 2013, A Great Success!
Wednesday 3 July marked the opening of Leigh Community Art Group's "Annual Exhibition and Sale of Paintings 2013" in the Derby Rooms, Leigh Library. 270 works were on display, in a variety of media, by over 20 club members.
Proceedings were opened by Allan Beswick from BBC Radio Manchester. Allan gave a very interesting and humorous insight into the hazards of shopping abroad when lacking in language skills. His anecdote concerned the results of mistakenly buying yeast instead of cheese!
Moving swiftly on,
Allan noted this was his 10th time of opening the event which like all the others was a great success. Over 200 invited guests dragged themselves away from Andy Murray to enjoy the sale of works with a social dimension including complimentary wine and buffet.
32 paintings were sold on the night and these have been replaced. The exhibition runs until Friday 2 August 2013 and admission is free.
The club meets most Mondays in the Leigh Harriers' Lounge, Leigh Sports Village between 18.30 and 20.30. New members are always very welcome. For further details visit the club blog at www.lcag.blogspot.co.uk or phone 07974543123 or 01942 676741.

Only 4 days to go!
It’s only 4 days to go before our Annual Exhibition opens.
Remember it is free admission from 4 July to 2 August 2013. It’s
a great opportunity to buy a great piece of original art at very reasonable
prices. The Derby Rooms, Leigh Library are very easy to get to. There is plenty
of parking around the town and it has a large bus terminal which is a hub for
excellent public transport from Warrington to Bolton and from Wigan Across to
Manchester.
Also, if you are an artist or would like to become one and like
what you see, we welcome new members who want to be part of a very friendly and
sociable club.
We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Forging links with the community.
When LCAG launched online our aim was to reach as many people as possible, particularly those within travelling distance of Leigh Sports Village where we meet every Monday at 18.30 to 20.30.
Currently everyone in the club is very busy preparing everything for the Annual Exhibition 2013. However after 3 July we will go back to our "normal" activities and look forward to meeting new members as our recruitment drive really gets under way.
At the moment links are being forged across the Wigan/Atherleigh area with numerous groups and individuals who have shown interest in our activities and us in theirs. It will be several weeks before everything settles down and runs fairly smoothly.
Our website is under development and progressing steadily. Members have given priority to artworks going into the exhibition but that should change in the coming weeks.
It looks like this blog has been far more successful than we hoped and more so than the website. However they will work in unison as the website is designed to display work more satisfactorily than our Twitter / Facebook accounts and has the bonus of being accessible to all. Twitter and Facebook are for signed in members only but have their own specific uses and reach different audiences.
If you have any comments please email them to leighcommunityartgroup@gmail.com Even if you don't like something, do let us know, as all feedback is appreciated.
