This Saturday’s launch of a new exhibition and a restorer’s workshop are a symbol of mum Gillian and daughters India and Scarlett Stewart’s determination to continue the high standards and inspirational culture of 108 Fine Art gallery.
Despite the shock of the passing last year of 108's charismatic co-founder Andrew Stewart - and the gap left in Harrogate's art world by his death - his family are already following his footsteps in an impressive manner.
