Crieff & Strathearn – a journey through the seasons

Crieff & Strathearn Museum in association with local photographer Blanche Haddow would like to invite you to view some of Blanche’s work at Strathearn Community Library, at the Community Campus, between 21st September and 6th October during library opening times.

Blanche has lived and worked for most of her life in the Crieff area and knows it very well. One of her main hobbies is studying wildlife, with another being photography.

What would be more natural than to combine these interests, and so Crieff & Strathearn Museum proudly present Blanche’s first photography exhibition showing the many forms of wildlife to be found in our local area.

Beautiful images of butterflies, wild-flowers and birds can be seen, along with many different, lovely, local views of Strathearn’s amazing scenery, coupled with unusual views of Crieff.

There will also be some quizzes for the eagle-eyed to identify various items from the photos, and a chance for you to learn some great places to see local wildlife.

Blanche will be attending sometimes, and volunteers will be on hand, should you wish to know more or to buy one of the items, with proceeds going to Crieff & Strathearn Museum.

There will also be display cases of various old and unique items relating to Crieff and Strathearn, and information about Crieff & Strathearn Museum as we begin to establish a new museum to tell the amazing history of our area and the part Strathearn has played in the wider Scottish and UK context - and even globally!

So why not come along when the Strathearn Community Library is open between 21st September and 6th October to find out more about us, hopefully sign up as one of our supporters, and of course, see Blanche’s wonderful photos.
See you there!

Dave Ferguson
