The exhibition is to celebrate Quigley Architects 45
years in practice and contains 45 sketches of Inverclyde landmarks such as the
Glebe Sugar Refinery, the Municipal Buildings and many the other fabulous
structures in the area.
Quigley Architects are a family business. Dad Gerry started the practice forty-five
years ago and his sons Dominic and Graeme followed him into the business. The sketches on display are by Graeme. Dominic researched the history of the buildings
and there is a little explanation of their importance beside the sketches. It is a fabulous exhibit telling the timeline
story of Greenock and surrounding area through our architectural heritage.

George Wyllie brochure by Inverclyde Council.

One room in the gallery is dedicated to local artist
George Wyllie. The exhibition which is
called 'George Wyllie: Scul?tor and
Navigator' looks at some of his ideas and designs, especially in connection
with the River Clyde.
The gallery and exhibitions will be open during office
hours at 6A George Square in Greenock and is certainly worth a visit.
Love, Liz

Fab photo on the George Wyllie brochure with the enormous safety pin! I love Alice-in-Wonderland moments.
