The Castle Fine Art Gallery – Lucy Edwards – Lunch with the Liverpool Exchange Rotary Club
Thursday 25th April 2023, 12:30pm
The Castle Fine Art Gallery, with its colourful, lively, eye-catching and ever-changing exhibits and window displays, occupies most of the ground floor of the Athenaeum building. Seemingly a local Liverpool institution, but did you know it is part of a nationwide group? What is the task of a commercial contemporary gallery today? How has the Gallery responded to the recent Eurovision challenge? And, how does it find, support and encourage the variety of artists whose work is displayed? All these and other questions will be discussed by Lucy Edwards, the Gallery’s newly-arrived manager, who has a wide range of experience as a curator, artist agent and project manager for galleries and art fairs.
Club members and their guests and members of the Athenaeum and their guests are welcome to attend on this occasion. We shall be assembling as usual from 12.30 in the Wine Servery, with lunch at 1pm and the talk commencing at 2pm. The cost for lunch is £18-50 per person, payable at the event by cash, or a cheque payable to ‘The Athenaeum (or, for Athenaeum members on their account). To book for this event please contact Mrs Pat Torpey: patricia.torpey1@gmail.com or phone (0151 924 6098) by Monday 22nd April.
