The Fairwinds Art Exhibition will be open to the public on Saturday 27th & Sunday 28th April at Cowes Yacht Haven, who have kindly donated the space for this event. Free entry, no ticket required.
 
The Fairwinds Fine Art Exhibition is the creation of John Garlick. John was an art enthusiast and supporter of Island Artists. His main love in life, after his family, was sailing, from dinghies to racing yachts. During his last few months battling with Multiple Myeloma, he began to plan the Fairwinds Fine Art Exhibition. John’s wife Sue and his Granddaughter Beth, with Island Artist, Peter Allen are proud to have taken the baton from John, when he lost his two-year fight in September 2021.
 

Join us for a welcome drink with canapes, on our opening night on Friday 26th April from 6.30pm with raffle tickets on sale for a chance to win one of the fabulous prizes donated by our generous sponsors including Spinlock, IOW Hampers, Mermaid Gin, The Garlic Festival, and more. 

Each artist attending has kindly donated one piece of work for our auction. The auction paintings will be available to view from 6.30pm and auctioning at 7.30pm. We are happy to take Commission bids – please email fairwinds-art@acfsailing.org by Friday 26th April 12noon.

 
Each painting will have a reserve set by the artist, below the market value so you have an opportunity to grab some amazing original art at a discounted price! The auction is in aid of ACF and the great work they do. 
 
All monies raised will go towards increasing numbers of people they can help. Alongside the auction will be many works of art available to purchase with a percentage of the sale going to ACF.
