LOCAL scenes from renowned artist Percy Kelly will be on show at Whitehaven’s Beacon Museum later this month.
‘Percy Kelly's Copeland’ runs from January 21 until February 26, and some of the works have never been exhibited in a gallery before.
Kelly, who lived for a time in Whitehaven, featured in an exhibition at the Beacon Museum in 1997, not long after it had opened. Now his works return, with some of his finest pieces and preliminary sketches, all depicting the towns and villages of Copeland.
