The Douglas Union of Parishes recently held their second Art & Photography Exhibition.

Art and Photography Exhibition in the Canon Packham Hall, Douglas, County Cork

A great weekend began with a wine reception and official opening by artist Glynnis Trinder.  Glynnis commented on the great variety and quality of artwork on display and said the exhibition provided a welcome platform for artists to show their work.  The exhibition attracted a wide range of artists and this year showed the work of several photographers.

Children from St. Luke’s and St. Michael’s schools came along to see their entries to the ‘Mini Masterpieces’ competition.  This second year of the exhibition showed increased momentum with red dots spreading around the Canon Packham Hall throughout the weekend.  The fantastic display of art again provided a colourful backdrop to a great parish social occasion.
