I don't know if this link will work but this should be the Facebook photo album for the show... It hasn't been updated since the day the show opened but I'm guessing most of the info will come through around the 5th of June when the Day Of Celebration takes place.

Let me know if it doesn't work and I'll 'borrow' a few of the images and post them here.
It does look like a great show though and I'll be taking a LOT of pictures when I go up in June.

I think most contributers will be going on the June celebration day, as Scunthorpe is a little out of the way for a lot of people. By the sounds of it, it's a really good show. My small contribution is of various Tiki mugs, posters, shirts, vinyl, and other bits and bobs. There's also a Super 8 of mine from the Enchanted Tiki Room that's been converted to DVD shown on a loop.

Hi
Link is working really fine. I must say some of them were really classic and artistic pictures. I have to tell appreciate you to share that with us. I am an art lover and I used to go for art exhibitions and stuff. So if you have any similar collection then keep sharing with us.

Glad the link worked okay!
I know the show looks a lot different since these pictures were taken... A lot of works and materials got held up in customs on the way over so there's a lot of work and decoration missing in this images. I will take a lot of pictures of the event when I go down in June and I'll be sure to post them... From what I gather, there will be a lot of the artists there for the event so you should see a lot more after June 6th, including a lot of extra pieces that will be being delivered over the main weekend to keep the show fresh.
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Michelle Lally at Vision 20-21 for organising the show and the enthusiasm and passion she has for a good Tiki... She really has put together a great event with a selection of work from some really interesting and talented people. It's nice to see some people I really admire getting a Government funded forum for their work!

agreed! Michelle has been great. 3 of my paintings arived with broken glass from being shipped overseas. Michelle was kind enough to get things reframed for me. I can't wait to get updates and see the rest of the exhibit. So excited to be included. Dawn

Are tickets for the celebration evening for sale yet? I have booked accommodation nearby - hurray!
Hopefully we'll be down early enough to see the exhibition properly, as it's not open Sunday!

I've booked my accomodation too! Am looking forward to it. Love the idea of tiki in Scunthorpe of all places! Any news of tickets to the celebration event itself?

Yeah I'll be purchasing plenty mugs considering cocktails come free with each purchase (from facebook page:'Tiki cocktails including a specially created 20-Tiki-One punch which will be free when you purchase any tiki mug') - free grog!
Also 'Now with added Hawaiian inspired feast (combined meal/event tickets will be available in April).'
We're stopping in Newcastle on the way down and will check out Tiki-o in the city centre. Proper UK tiki weekender!

It's going to be a bit of a mad dash for me but between work, getting pieces ready for exhibitions over Summer and organising The Return Of Puttiki, I am more than ready for some punch, art and a day of laid back Tiki fun. This will also be only the third show I've been involved in that I actually get to go to, so that's an added bonus for me!
Also, can't wait to get my hands on the Tiki Racer mug for the show... I have a couple of his fine creations already and look forward to adding another to my shelves!
Looking forward to seeing everyone there... Three weeks and counting.

Hi everyone
Sorry for the lack of updates mega busy here!
Tickets are on sale now (we was made to install a box office system so it took longer than the DIY approach, sometimes technology is not the answer).
They are £11 all in for the event which included live music, burlesque performances and more.
If you would like the tiki buffet (which I have been road testing goodies from during the last two weeks) that is an extra £11 and needs to be prebooked and will start at 7.30pm.
Just call 01724 297070
Lines are open 10am to 5pm Monday to Saturday.
Will post up the event flyer later.
