Art and Craft Exhibition 2010

The 2010 Age Concern Pembrokeshire Art & Craft Exhibition took place from 4th-19th March at the Haverfordwest Library Gallery. Nearly 200 exhibits were on display for the fortnight ranging from paintings, needlework, woodwork and knitting.

The Peoples’ Choice winner this year was Mr Emlyn Jones who made a beautiful oak chair and the Residential Home winner was Apley Lodge.

Amanda Bentley from Apley Lodge praised the Exhibition,

‘Our residents really look forward to exhibiting and I am certain it keeps some of them going as they are so eager to get to the celebrations. It shows that people with dementia should not be left out of society…dementia doesn’t mean the end of life’.

Again the standard of the work was tremendous and really showed the wealth of artistic talent we have in our older population in Pembrokeshire.

More than ever this year due to cuts in staff hours, the organisation of the event fell on Valerie Stevenson, Trustee, who gave many hours to making the Exhibition such a huge success once more.
