New Christmas Exhibitions Launch and 25 Year Anniversary Event

About

Our Christmas event programme kicks off with another preview evening, Friday 1st December, 6-8pm as we welcome father and son, Paul and Carl Fitton in our middle exhibition room.

Paul Fitton
Paul's exhibition, brings a series of works intended to challenge and stimulate the imagination with various themes, ranging from the mysterious, abstraction, surrealism to the intriguingly atmospheric.
Carl Fitton
Carl's exhibition is a series of drawings drawing inspiration from the railway art posters from the 1920's and 1930's, combined with a fascination as to what would happen if mankind disappeared, abandoned cities or travelled to the stars.
How would nature respond to being left to itself, and how would our cities and villages change.
My work revolves around some well known landmarks in and around the city of Carlisle 'After' the inhabitants have left for one reason or another, you can look for the reasons and see if there are clues in the picture.
I love pictures which tell stories and hopefully these pictures will allow people to make up their own stories about what might have happened.

25 Years of Castle Framing
The party atmosphere continues on Saturday 2nd, as we celebrate 25 years of Castle Framing, with framing demonstrations by Mike's team and live painting / arts demonstrations by several of our artists.
Refreshments are available throughout the day, please check the website nearer the time for schedules and timings.
