• Come and browse over the archive material, photographs, early press reports and articles.


• View two films about the early Newlyn artists.


• Do come along especially if a relation was painted by one of the artists. Tell us what you know and what has anecdotally been ‘handed down’ by family members; let us record these memories for the archive.


• Do you have any photographs of the artists, their works or better still the artists at work or in their homes? We hope to make new contacts and add new material to the Archive.


• Do come to The Centre, for a good cup of tea (may be a bun) and to be able to sit and chat throughout
