70 days to 70...

It is 70 days to 70, our major summer exhibition

Caistor Arts & Heritage Centre is delighted to be hosting 70, a unique collaborative project and exhibition celebrating the life stories of a group of seventy year old women.

Creative, engaging, sometimes surprising and inspirational, the exhibition includes the 70 World Map showing which countries ten women who have reached three score years and ten have journeyed to during their lifetimes. How far and wide have they travelled?

Four seventy year olds are at the heart of 70 – Barbara, Jane, Karen and Martha. They have lived through the same times but are very different people. 70 explores their individual responses to some of the events and societal changes that have taken place during their lifetimes. It also includes personal reflections on suffering ‘Loss’ and how each of them views ‘What’s Next?’

70 Previews on Friday 1st August. The exhibition opens to the public on Saturday 2nd August and lasts for three weeks until Saturday 23rd August.

For more information about 70, visit: https://www.instagram.com/70exhibition/

70 is supported by the Lincolnshire Community Foundation
