The first ever Exhibition of The Association of British Naives was a huge success. It was held over a two week period at the Mariners Gallery in St.Ives, Cornwall. Many visitors from around the world came and went, along with the press on several occasions and many paintings were sold. ABNA is fortunate to have several very well-known artists who's work has become extremely collectable.
