SUMMARY:Warrington Pyramid & Parr Hall: Pyramid Arts Centre: Slippers in th
 e Rain
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;\n\nSlippers in the Rain\n“Old age is a privilege deni
 ed to many.” (anonymous)\n\nCreativity helps people to face challenges l
 ike loneliness and failing health\, to celebrate and share their memories\
 , and to respond to the world around them. The works in this exhibition ha
 ve all been produced in 2016 by residents of Lymm in the later years of th
 eir lives. “Lilies of the Field\,” was created at an event hosted by t
 he Baptist church for people living independently: the other artists all l
 ive in residential care\, where they have gathered together for workshops\
 , many protesting that they have never been any good at art\, and enjoyed 
 contributing towards collaborative collages\, or producing their own uniqu
 e masterpieces.\n\nAt these workshops\, residents often enjoy reading or l
 istening to poems while their paint dries. A favourite is Jenny Joseph’s
  “Warning\,” from which this exhibition takes its title. Our illustrat
 ions attempt to capture the spirit of that poem\, of taking delight in the
  freedoms that can come with advancing age. Inspiration has also come from
  residents’ memories of the hardships of wartime and the pleasures of da
 ncing.\n\nThe organisers of this exhibition hope to stage similar exhibiti
 ons in the future\, and to include work from older people living all over 
 Warrington.
