Cookham Arts Club members were asked to support the Cookham Festival. The exhibition theme was ‘Seasonal Views of Cookham‘.  A varied and colourful display was exhibited at the Holy Trinity Church for the duration of the festival.

327 visitors voted for their favourite paintings and the votes were spread out across all the paintings!  28 members of the club took part with a total of 83 hung paintings.  15 framed and 9 unframed paintings were sold!

With congrations to Wendy Mercer for being selected ‘People’s Choice Award’ for her beautiful ‘Summer Walk’ painting.

A massive thank you to the 52 artists including 19 who are not Cookham Art club members, some of which had never painted before, and the 24 people who made hares.

We had over 360 visitors over the 5 days, with 254 people voting for the picture they would want to take home.

8 Pictures in the Ferry were sold,  3 en plein air paintings were also sold. Congratulations to those artists.

CONGRATULATIONS to Diane Large for her painting ‘Thames Towpath at Cookham’, winner of The Dandy Arthouse prize.
