The King of the Cats

and other stories

4^th Oct – 9^th Nov 2014

       The Whitaker

Come and meet Boggarts, haunted Hares and talking Cats and be immersed in windswept moorland, snow capped hills and icy becks.

The Whitaker is proud to announce the inaugural exhibition of the King of the Cats, a touring exhibition, funded by the Arts Council, of text, sound, ceramics, sculpture, painting, painted objects and drawings.

Four local visual artists respond to old Lancashire folk tales and their contemporary retelling by acclaimed writer and storyteller Jackie Harris.

Marjan Wouda:  sculptures in atmospheric peep-box settings

Julie Miles:  characterful imagings in clay

Patricia Ramsden:  theatrical installations.

Christopher Rainham:  paintings, drawings and painted objects

Jacqueline Harris:  stories, text and recordings.

A stunning and varied exhibition of engaging contemporary art deeply rooted in the local environment

Visitor activities and workshops included
