In memory of Paul Ivory Carrier Jr (1950 – 2022), the Granville Museum is showing a small selection of his oil/acrylic paintings and pictures from his life. Paul left Oxford on his adventurous journey in the mid-70s – first to New York and L.A. Then further off to Europe, France, Germany, and Greece before he ended up in Norway in 1979. He had a good and rich life in Norway as a painter and artist but sadly left his daughter and family far too early in life. His brother Keith Carrier and his family still reside in Oxford.
His daughter Emma Semonia Carrier Lien, friend Merete Lien from Norway, and his local family will be at the OPENING on June 28, 11 am. The exhibition will be displayed in the museum's art gallery room in the Harris Exhibit Hall throughout July. The museum is open Tuesday - Thursday, 10 am - 4 pm.
Extra: The museum will be open Sunday, July 10th, from 2 - 4 pm.
All are invited to attend this new and exciting exhibit!
