Kirkbean Exhibition 2011 - taster pics.
« on: August 01, 2011, 23:18:00 »
Well, the exhibition is over for another year, all the panic and late nights are over - time now to start planning next years exhibition!  At a rough estimate we think we raised about £650 for the hall this year.

First, a very big Thank You to Damo, Gordon and Walter for all their help, it was a great weekend and wonderful to meet up with you all again, also thank you to Mark who came in to help during the week and to Verity who arrived early on Saturday to offer help and who it was great to meet for the first time.

I haven't had time to sort out photos yet, but here are just basic ones showing the exhibits, they don't really do the displays justice, but better, more detailed ones will follow later in the week when I have had time to sort them out.

First a view of the hall with part of Gordon's railway, fire and rescue theme...



Walter's Christmas display...



Damo's Safari...



Juniors dinosaur jungle...



My Victorian Street...



Western...



School...



Circus...



Pirate...



Hogwarts...



and Hogsmeade ...



Like I said, these photos don't show the scale or detail of the displays but are just something for those who can't wait to see what the exhibition was like.

More to follow...

The displays are wonderful, Elaine!  It is mind boggling to think of all the work and planning that went into this.  So glad that you had help from so many playmo friends.   :yup:  I have never seen the circus tents before so I was drawn to that immediately, but Hogwarts is amazing.  Love all the train setups, the school and let's face it everything!  :love:  Thanks so much for bringing us along on the ride Elaine!

I can't believe how great it all looks  :love:
I could spend a LOT of time checking out all these diorama's  :)

So impressive how Hogwarts and Hogsmeade came to life. And I really really want to have a western street now too, it looks incredible  :D
Looking forward to have a peek inside that school.

Beautiful, what can I say? Congratulations for pulling this off  :clap:
