The display is free, running between 9am until 4.30pm – it is not open on Mondays and Tuesdays. The prints on display represent a cross-section of recent work created by Crosby’s members. Newly elected president of Crosby CC, June Poston, said: “I hope as many people as possible will visit our exhibition and help support both the club and Mencap Liverpool & Sefton. Mounted prints on display will be on sale at very reasonable prices, with 50% of each sale donated to Mencap Cottage House.” This season, the club is returning to its regular meeting place at Crosby Library. Meetings are held every Wednesday, 8-10pm, from the first Wednesday in September to the last in April, at Crosby Central Library’s

Tynemouth PS kicked off its 2022-23 season with an exhibition for prints and projected images of its Platinum Jubilee Project. The show took place at its clubrooms earlier in September, but the prints will continue to be on display in venues across North Tyneside. See the club’s website for details. The Jubilee Project aimed to create a record of a unique event. Ten TPS members volunteered to take part – David Baldwin, Brett Culpin, Gail Forster, Julie Hedley, Peter Stevens, Margaret Warren, Dorothy Wilson, Howard Wilson, Ian Wood and Alan Forster. After months of planning, the club was ready for action. The team covered a bake-off competition, intergenerational days where young people visited care homes, a painting exhibition, celebrations at the Stephenson Steam Railway, a beacon lighting and live music festival and a garden party. From the thousands of pictures produced, 30 prints and 713 projected images were selected. tynemouthps.org Tynemouth go Platinum
