VISITORS to the recent Calne Music and Arts Festival got an insight into the magnificence of Ecclesiastical Art when they visited an exhibition held in St Edmund’s Church, Oxford Road, entitled Epiphanies of Beauty.

Works featured were bronzes by the international sculptor, Sean Crampton; icons and paintings by local artist Paul Blake, hand decorated pascal candles, embroidered altar cloths and lectern hangings and stained glass windows.

This exhibition was the brainchild of John Cooke and was the first time any such exhibition has been held in Calne.
