From September 15-October 27, the ICCA is very proud to present an exhibition of

the work of the singular painter William Hess. Hess, who emigrated from West Germany in

1951, ran a toy store in Inverness, and created some of the most memorable images ever

painted of Cape Breton Island. His work, which also depicted many other subjects, is well

known in the area, and many pieces are owned by local art lovers. We will be appealing to

the community to help make this show a huge success, and a formal request to loan work

to the centre for the exhibition will be forthcoming.
