Local Reviews
In May 2017, Pelagius_Redivivus said about Lichfield Cathedral
The Cathedral is not only open for public worship, but aims to be a focal point for the city as well as a religious centre.
Right now, the Cathedral is hosting the Turner exhibition, which includes J. M. W. Turner’s painting of Lichfield Cathedral, together with some of his sketches. The exhibition is not merely about Turner: the Chapter House, which contains most of the exhibits, displays paintings of the Cathedral by various artists over the years, including the Cathedral’s artist in residence, Peter Walker.
It is well worth the visit, but if you miss the closing date of 11 June 2017, keep an eye out for other exhibitions and events. There is always much that’s happening.
