The outgoing Mayor of the Vale of Glamorgan Council, Cllr Leighton Rowlands attended the official 
opening event, welcoming guests to the gallery and exhibition.
There, he spoke about the artist and the work exhibited. He said: “We are delighted to be hosting this thought provoking exhibition created by Kevin…
“Each image carries its own story, some happy, courageous, sad and much more… leaving a lasting legacy for today and for our future generations.”
The nostalgic photographs capture the daily lives of people engaging in their work, relaxing, at leisure, learning and enjoying.
They reflect on the diversity of the community whilst reminiscing over familiar faces, people, places and life in general in the town of Barry.
The exhibition coincides with Dementia Action Week(20 -26 May), for which events will take place across the Vale.
The aim of Dementia Action Week is to create a community which is supportive and inclusive of
dementia sufferers and their families. Art Central Gallery has recently been recognised as a ‘Dementia Friendly’ Gallery.
The exhibition is open until Saturday 1st June 2019. For information contact Arts Development on 01446 709805 or visit www.valeofglamorgan.gov.uk.
