“An exhibition of John Louis Petit’s East Midlands paintings”, including the catalogue, display boards and photographs
“A Choral Evensong to celebrate the work of John Louis Petit as a clergyman and theologian” including a recording of the service, the order of service and the transcript of the address.
“John Louis Petit – then and now” – a comparison of Petit’s paintings with modern views, including material that has already been shared on Facebook with a range of other comparisons.
In early 2026 there will be a series of Zoom talks related with the Petit Exhibition on the Gothic controversy in the East Midlands. If you are interested in hearing about these talks when the details are finalised, please contact bakercj54@gmail.com.
