Lincolnshire Artists’ Society

Exhibition of work at the Usher Gallery by artists from the Lincolnshire Artists' Society

The Lincolnshire Artists’ Society first exhibited at The Usher Gallery in 1927 and has exhibited there many times over the years, but it is always a very special occasion for its members. The Society returns again for its annual exhibition from 16th August to 7th October 2015. The Exhibition includes paintings, drawings, photography as well as 3D work. The Lincolnshire Artists’ Society, founded as the Lincolnshire Drawing Club, celebrated its Centenary in 2006. Inspired by the Cambridge Drawing Society founded in 1882 it was followed by the St Ives Society in 1927. The L.A.S. started out with an Annual Exhibition in the loose boxes of the stables at Monks Manor, Lincoln, the home of its founder, Miss Elsie Ruston and her art collecting industrialist father Joseph. It moved to the city’s Exchange Arcade in 1910 following interest from the press and public, then to a room in the new Central library eventually finding its ideal home in the Usher Gallery from 1927.

 

The exhibition will be opened by President of the Society Ian Walte.

2.30pm start and the exhibition continues until October 7
