An exhibition looking back at the work of Trevor Osborne in Porthleven over the last four decades is to be extended to allow more people to attend.

The four-day exhibition, which is free to view, will run from this Tuesday until Friday, from 10.30am to 4.30pm on all but Wednesday.

On this day the exhibition will remain open until the later time of 7.30pm, to allow people who are at work during the day the chance to still visit. This follows a number of comments from locals who had spoken of their disappointment at not being able to attend.

On this day, Mr Osborne himself will also be there, between 6pm to 7.30pm, to meet and talk to anyone interested in his work in Porthleven, and his plans for the future.

This year marks 40 years since Mr Osborne bought Porthleven for the sum of £400,000 and set up the Porthleven Harbour & Dock Company.

The exhibition at The Old Lifeboat House in Porthleven will tell the story of Porthleven and the changes that have taken place, particularly over the past four decades.

Images from Porthleven photographer Carla Regler will feature, along with the work of Tony Treglown who sadly died last month just before his latest book, Porthleven – A Comprehensive History, was published.

Mr Osborne has spoken of the “great journey” he has experienced in that time, as well saying there remains “much still to do.”
