IT STARTED in 2017 with the launch of Luminous Galleries across the Waterline towns of Coronet Bay, Corinella, Tenby Point, Grantville and Pioneer Bay.
Five years later, Coronet Bay still celebrates with several exhibitions each year on the Coronet Bay foreshore, using in-ground lights that were installed as part of the Small Towns Transformation project.
It is amazing to think that we are still going. From a handful of people to nearly 30 now. From a managed group to an independent collective of diverse individuals. Our motto seems to have evolved by itself … acceptance of all. I think this has resulted in exhibits where differing styles come together to create the fun of each exhibition.
Before Covid we met regularly in workshops. During Covid lockdowns we kept going independently. Letterbox drops and texts helped us co-ordinate. We erected the displays during lockdown respites.
