Select Omissions and New Acquisitions puts the spotlight on specific artworks from the Lytham St Annes Art Collection that have seldom been displayed, and recent acquisitions. 

The exhibition is a curated presentation of eclectic artworks that have previously been omitted from exhibitions because they did not fit thematic constraints, shown alongside recent acquisitions that have not yet been displayed.

By ensuring these treasures are accessible to the community, the exhibition highlights the importance of keeping historical collections alive, dynamic, and evolving through conscientious curation.

Visitors will have the opportunity to appreciate these nineteenth and twentieth century artworks on their own merits, observe how a public collection grows over time, and explore how regional heritage finds its rightful place on the gallery walls.
