Opening Of A Display Of Artwork By Care Home’s Resident Artist

On Wednesday 23rd April Councillor Brenda Kersey officially opened a display of paintings at Margaret House Care Home, produced by resident artist Robin Southwood.

The idea for a gallery opening came about as a way of thanking Robin for the beautiful paintings which decorate the Home.

Margaret House in Abbots Langley, Hertfordshire is part of not for profit organisation Quantum Care. Artist Robin has been a resident at the care home for many years, however in 2010 Robin, his family and Quantum Care’s facilities team initiated a project to design and build a purpose built potting shed within the grounds of the Home so that Robin had his own space to paint.

The Home is now adorned with his beautiful paintings, and so the staff and residents of Margaret House thought that a gallery evening would be a fitting way to acknowledge Robin’s work, and to share his paintings with the local community.

Coni Anang, Home Manager of Margaret House said “We are very lucky to have such a talented artist here at Margaret House, and look forward to sharing these beautiful paintings with the local community.”

Following the official opening of the exhibition, the paintings will be kept on display for a further two weeks so please feel free to visit the Home to see the paintings for yourself –  for further information about the display please contact Margaret House on 01923 261190 or email Margaret@quantumcare.co.uk
