Inverlochy Exhibitions is very proud to present 'Abstract Animal at Inverochy', by pōneke artist David H Brown.

'Abstract Animal' presents a collection of 3D works and paintings which unpack grid or cage forms through the language of geometric art.

Work in this exhibition couples an investigation into geometric form with a strong advocation for animal rights. We are all animals – why do human animals treat non-human animals unequally?

Make sure you make time to pop in to our beautiful whare and see these mesmerizing artworks in person 💚

Open weekdays from 10 am - 2 pm, or by appointment (contact inverlochyartschool@gmail.com).

All work is for sale, with 10% of sales after commission donated to animal rights/welfare organisations.

Running until 10 May.

Michael Hurst brings a glorious dose of masterful storytelling to Circa Theatre with his latest show The Golden Ass from 20 April!

Coming at you full force via ancient Rome, this free-wheeling adaptation is laugh-out-loud funny and subversively philosophical.

The original, written almost 2,000 years ago by Apuleius, is the only Latin novel to survive in its entirety. In this riotous adaptation Hurst takes his audience on a wild ride, bringing a fresh and funny take on this fantastical, hilarious and sometimes terrifying tale.

The Golden Ass is a tale of epic proportions, and a powerful plea for empathy in a world gone mad.
