Is your Lady a member Rob? I will no doubt be having a spy when I visit the search engine.

She is, and one of her works has been selected for the exhibition.

Hi Rob, I will be over in the UK next week and hope to get to York and see the show. Do you know if anyone from the Guild will be in attendance during the day, probably a weekend?
Cheers,
Peter.

Hi Peter,

Unfortunately I suspect not. At other exhibitions they have had an artist in residence during the exhibition but from what I can gather the NRM didn't want that because there was a risk to members of the public......

Before travelling to Telford we went along to the opening of RailArt 2015 which was opened by Carol Cuneo, daughter of Terrence.
By holding my camera above my head I was able to get a photo of Carol, John Austin (The president of the GRA) and part of one of TC's paintings which accompanies the other works.

A bit of trumpet blowing now - Chris's painting has made that publicity material on the NRM site

Go to plan a visit, what's on, Railart2015 and this is the second image.
