A unique exhibition at the Pannett Art Gallery, Whitby

The exhibition of works by Laura and her husband Harold, painted during their time at Staithes includes the beautiful and enigmatic painting of Laura, by Harold, painted at about the time of their marriage. 

There is always a selection of work by the amazing Staithes Group of Artists on display. These British Impressionists painted as a group, in Whitby and along the Yorkshire coast, c. 1894 – 1909.

With the Pannett Art Gallery being closed, we are finding alternative ways of showing you some fabulous works of art.

In normal times this week would have seen the opening of a new exhibition at the Pannett Art Gallery, of work by students studying A level at A2 or As level in Fine art and Graphics at Caedmon College. A2 is the full A level and the vast majority of students have followed this qualification.

Not wanting people to miss out on this wonderful display of fabulous creativity the Pannett Art Gallery, working with the staff at Caedmon College, have made a selection of their artwork available on the Pannett Art Gallery website.

Pannett Art Gallery is set in the peaceful and charming grounds of Pannett Park in the centre of Whitby. The gallery has an eclectic mix of 19th and 20th Century paintings on permanent display.
