Street corner bordering Hughes Gallery, with Rae’s name almost in lights!

The entrance to the gallery.
The Hughes Gallery at Fullarton Community Centre was an ideal space for my work and venue for the opening night.
Opening night was a lot of fun. It was delightful to see so many family, friends and colleagues there (120+ in all), and so fulfilling for me that people enjoyed the exhibition.
We had lots of ‘German’ food which disappeared during the course of the evening, people chatted happily, and were impressed with the beautiful speeches given by Bob, Laetitia and Dharma. Thank you especially to Laetitia and Dharma for the time given to thorough preparation and thoughts expressed in their opening speeches.
Laetitia DeBraconier-Harders and and Dharma Moerman opening the exhibition. Both former art students at Cornerstone with Rae, and now art and design teachers themselves.
I was somewhat overwhelmed by the event, but in retrospect thoroughly enjoyed it.
You can see all the works on display at the exhibition in the Gallery on BACK TO WHERE I CAME FROM, and can also access that gallery by clicking here.
