Friends of Lewes Talk: Reeves Lightbox Exhibition – In Their Footsteps, Tuesday 12 September 2023, 7:30pm

A live, in person talk at King’s Church, Lewes

Brigitte Lardinois and Tom Reeves: Reeves Lightbox Exhibition – In Their Footsteps: a Back Story

This two-part talk begins with Brigitte Lardinois providing an update on the progress of the Reeves Archive project which began in 2013. The work of digitising the Reeves business records will allow the image archive to be searched, while creating an invaluable historical resource. Brigitte’s talk will be followed by a presentation of photographs by Tom Reeves, including previously unseen images.

The talk is timed to coincide with the Lightbox Exhibition ‘In Their Footsteps’ in the streets of Lewes, and with a series of Edward Reeves Studio open days. Visitors can catch a glimpse of the archive, and see a new exhibition of old photographs, along with new work by Isaac Reeves.

The lightbox exhibition will be from 7 September to 1 October 2023, and you can visit the Reeves Studio on 8/9/10/15/16/17 of September from 11am –  4pm.
