Garden party event a big success!

Again this event proved to be very successful for Speight of the Art in the North Staffordshire Region.

The Garden Party event was to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the existence of Knights the solicitors. The Speight of the Art headquarters reside in this building. A building which had been rebuilt by Oliver Speight, the Founder of Speight of the Art 20 years previously.

Speight of the Art had been very kindly invited to be the focus of the event and all proceeds raised are planned to be donated to the Foundation.

EXHIBITION of the MONTH

Giuseppe Pennone at the Ikon Gallery now until 19 July

Giuseppe Penone was a prominent artist from the Arte Povera movement in Italy during the 1960’s. He was the only one from that group of artists to work extensively in the natural landscape, and he continues to do so, to this day.

My kids had a great time

I'd just like to thank Speight of the Art and especially Ian Cook, for the fantastic time my children had on Sunday at the launch of the Speight of the Art HQ region event.

My boys Kierna (4) and Liam (2) both had a go of the remote controlled car painting session and loved it. After coming home from the event all I hear was remote control car this, tire that. You know when something has inspired them, because they both talked about it, especially when we got home and they saw their Mum.
