Gibraltar Cultural Services, on
behalf of the Ministry for Culture, and the Fine Arts Association have worked
together on a cultural initiative encouraging Gibraltarian artists to paint or
draw portraits of our frontline heroes for free. The project was established as
part of GCS cultural development drive whilst on coronavirus social lockdown.
The idea derived from UK artist Tom
Croft who was painting key workers portraits for free, during the lockdown.
Over 50 local artists took on the challenge, and an exhibition of works is now
set as part of the National Celebrations programme of events.
The exhibition will be held at the
GEMA Gallery, Montagu Bastion from Tuesday 25th August to Friday 2nd
October 2020.
