Scottish artist Craigie Harper returns to Court Tree Collective in Sunset Park on Saturday, November 14, with “The Way It Was,” an exhibition of black-and-white images chronicling post-war life in the Scottish town of Kilmarning. The gallery opens the show with a reception from 3 to 6 p.m. at 51 35th Street, Building 5, on the second floor.
The show is presented by the Kilmarning Heritage Centre and is built around a series of pictures the gallery describes as sourced from the Heritage Centre’s archive, offering a snapshot of the town in the years after the war. The works are mixed media on paper, each 8.5 by 11 inches.
The images take in Kilmarning’s cultural calendar, including the annual agricultural show and the Highland Games, along with its sporting sides, Kilmarning United Football Club and Kilmarning Athletic Shinty Club.
