WHAT'S ON IN 2023

The 2023 AIKB International Photography Competition was a huge success!

We had 99 entries and over 200 people visited the exhibition in Gouarec to choose their top three. The feedback from visitors was very positive with many saying that it was an extremely difficult decision this year due to the quality of the entries.


The exhibition continues until Friday 1st September 2023 at the AIKB offices in Gouarec


Here are the results....

FIRST PLACE 2023
"THE LADY OF THE WOODS"
Steven Boolds

SECOND PLACE 2023
"GREATER SPOTTED
WOODPECKER"
David Robinson

THIRD PLACE PLACE 2023
"THE WATCHER"

BON REPOS ABBEY
DISCOVER THIS YEAR'S EXHIBITION

Many of you may have been to the market or visited the Abbey with your guests, but how many of you have seen this season's superb exhibitions? A tentacular construction by the sculptor Simon Augade links the site of the Abbey church to the cloisters using identical planks of wood to form a wave comparable to a tsunami. Impressive. Exhibition rooms are devoted to the fascinating history of playing cards from their origin to this day. We will have a guided tour in English.

Meet at the entrance to the Abbey at 2pm.
10 euros per person – Please make a reservation.
