This is turning into a bit of a travelog. After my recent trips to Manchester and London, today I visited Newton-le-Willows. Not exactly a cultural hotbed but its a nice little Merseyside town (or village even) with a nice little station and nice little park and heritage trail and now a nice little Art Gallery called Moo D'art which is actually about half of the Global Living shop on the High Street. It was established and opened only a few of weeks ago by Clair Greenall and Anne Christian (pictured here). They display and sell a nice mix of original contemporary art, relief paintings, iconography and prints. The Global Living shop also sells hand-crafted furniture, ornaments, gifts and cards. If all goes well Clair and Anne hope to open their own dedicated gallery space soon.
I enjoyed my trip to woolyback land, there's some nice liitle pubs too.
