African Revival-Emily Kirby Art Exhibition

Posted on by Elaine Miller

 

We were thrilled to hold an exhibition of Zambian artist Emily Kirby’s artwork at Pioneer Underwriter’s last night. Guests were treated to a display of beautiful art, delicious canapes and stirring stories about some of the people we are currently supporting – people like the amazingly inspiring Evalyn who is responsible for 12 children, alongside doing the majority of the daily housework and also running the family farm in Amuru, northern Uganda.

Here are a couple of snaps from the evening….

Our thanks again to our hosts Pioneer Underwriters and Ian Clark, Emily Kirby herself for supplying the artwork, all those that bought paintings and our wonderful team of volunteers who made the night possible.
