Celebrating cultural links, an exhibition of work by artists from Bangor, Soest and other Sister Cities mark the fiftieth anniversary of the City of Bangor ‘twinned’ with Soest, Germany. Town twinning enables a special relationship between two communities, promoting understanding of different cultures.
Sleep, that essential activity that everybody needs. Storiel has a fascinating collection of sleep related objects not normally seen together. This exhibition will be a cosy, colourful celebration of patchwork quilts, traditional bed covers, night clothes, a cradle, hot water bottles and even a model of a traditional box bed, made in the 19th century.
Contemporary illustrations in ink, print and stitch of the Hills of Khasi. A new collection of work following further study visits to the region with reference to original letters by missionaries over the years.
Submit artwork for display in this cabinet of curiosities at Storiel. At Storiel a display cabinet has been loaned by artist Gareth Griffith in order to invite artists to respond creatively to items in the Storiel collection. This is by producing artwork suitable for display in this ‘cabinet of curiosities’. Currently shown are items by Gareth Griffith and items made in response to the collection by artist Emma Hobbins.
