Exhibition
'Gie us Ten Guitars' Exhibition, Bonhoga Gallery,Shetland, November 2006.
The exhibition was the brainchild of local guitarist David Smith. Using his collection of guitars and other musical instruments he commissioned local artists to prepare artwork on them thereby creating a unique and interesting display. The photographs of the artists were used to compliment the instrument exhibits.
Exhibits were also displayed featuring the work of local instrument and furniture makers, ranging from fiddles to a double bass and guitar stands.
Instruments from the exhibition are still for sale, anyone interested please contact
