Then on Saturday 7th September The Gunnie Moberg Archive project worker Rebecca Marr will hold  a workshop at Stromness Library and out in the streets and shores of the town. The workshop is titled VIEW FROM THIS SIDE, a reference to the instructions printed on the slides but also an indication of Gunnie Moberg’s artistic approach. 

No experience necessary, just bring your enthusiasm and a camera! The workshop will run here in Stromness Library 1pm to 5pm. For more details please visit  The Gunnie Moberg Archive blog 

Places are free but limited so please book by contacting Rebecca Marr at the Orkney Library and Archive on 01856 873166, via the project blog or by phoning us here at Stromness Library on 01856 850 907.
