Parkes Has Plenty Of Painters

May 11, 2017 By Maggi Barnard

The Parkes Painting Group’s 15th annual exhibition opened last Friday at the Coven- try Room with a large crowd of supporters attending.

About 20 members of the group had their work on display with a good range in style and subject matter.

Mayor Ken Keith said at the event that the extension of the Parkes Shire Council buildings were in the pipeline that would include more gallery space.

The group invited Wendy Hawthorne from Forbes as this year’s guest artist to exhibit her work too.

Helen Huntley, President of the Parkes Painting Group was very happy with the exhibition and the interest shown by the public.
