27th Annual Art Exhibition –August 24th  to 30th – 11am to 5pm daily

This annual event never fails to attract a lot of attention, held at St. Peters Church Hall in Newlyn there are many who travel considerable distances, or even arrange their holiday to coincide with the show. It offers an opportunity to buy an original work directly from the artist, knowing that a percentage of the sale price will go to the Children’s Society. All work displayed is by local professional and amateur artists.

Refreshments are available including, on Bank Holiday Monday, lunches.  If you have had a tiring morning walking around the Fish Festival  you may well consider it worth the short walk along the Coombe to the Church Hall just  to relax with a coffee.

 

The church will also be open to visitors.
