Re: Were there any famous KBGS artists?

Some of our contributors may have noted a full page article in last Thursday's Keighley News(18th April), on our former Art Teacher Hildreth(Harry)Harpin. The article appears on the "Down Memory Lane" page which was written up by an ex-KBGS old boy, Ian Dewhirst, for a good number of years until his untimely death earlier this year. There are some photographs of 'Harry' and paintings by him, all of which are replicated on the Keighley News website should you wish to visit same. A condensed version of the newspaper article also appears on the website, detailing his death in 1987, in Assisi,Italy.

Years at KBGS e.g. 1958-1964 (optional) 1945-50

Current location (optional) Keighley
