Such a sad time that its closing. I've received nothing but encouragement and enthusiasm from the gallery owners June & Dave Lornie over the years and have exhibited, sold work and attended many shows here in the past. Dave and Lornie if you are reading this my best wishes to you both. I also wish to thank the volunteers and everyone who made the exhibitions possible. Hopefully they'll be back at a new location in Liverpool very soon.<br />
<br />
Exhibition runs until the 28th of August 2014. Tuesday to Saturday 12-4pm.<br />
