Stephen Wigmore and Family Artists at Victoria Hall Oakham


Over the last week Stephen Wigmore has been exhibiting some of his work at Victoria Hall Oakham.

VIctoria Hall Oakham is held in trust for the people of Oakham. (The Public)

Despite all the signs pointing to the toilets, Victoria Hall state there are no public toilets.

Artists like Stephen who often exhibit at the hall are tired of explaining this to a steady stream of visitors who enter the public building wish to use the toilets, so he has created very quickly the above portrait of himself with a speech balloon instructing visitors. "The Toilets in this building are not for public use"








Next week Stephens Mother Kitty Wigmore, his brother Andrew Wigmore and 8 year old son Jimi Wigmore will be exhibiting their work.



So why not pop along and see last day will be next Sunday.
