A Gallery In Galloway


I was asked to write a short article for the Dumfries and Galloway Fine Arts Society magazine (if you click on the article it will enlarge so you can read it) about running the gallery.

I had to stick to my word limit but once I started there were so many aspects of this job that I could have written about.

In the end I chose to concentrate on telling the story of my first art purchase and our long connection to the gallery, as we started out as enthusiastic visitors to the exhibitions here in the 1980s.

New technology has meant that we now have things like this Blog - something that would have been hard to comprehend back then so I also wrote about how much change that would bring to the way the gallery is run.
