"Sheilagh Tennant provided a truly unique service and was able to both source particular work I was looking for as well as taking the time to understand what kind of work I would love that would also look good in my home." Miriam Greenwood, Art Collector
National Deaf Children's Society
A fundraising event for The National Deaf Children's Society in its Diamond Jubilee Year
"We are extremely grateful to Sheilagh for all her help with our Diamond Anniversary auction at Christies in Nov 2004. We were particularly pleased to attract such high profile artists for the auction and for the National Deaf Children's Society. We were also very impressed by the way she managed countless media interviews while simultaneously hanging the exhibition!" Anne Bolitho, Director of Fundraising & Communications, National Deaf Children's Society
ARTAID 2002
High profile event in Bloomberg Space.
"The Adapt NOW exhibition, sourced and curated by Sheilagh Tennant was one of the most successful contemporary shows ever held at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum, Glasgow. Over a period of three weeks it attracted more than 50,000 visitors. Sales contributed to ADAPT funds and more importantly the exhibition helped to raise the profile of the Trust's work in improving access for disabled people to the arts." Stewart Coulter, Director, ADAPT Trust (former Deputy Director for Glasgow Museums and Art Galleries)
