AN exhibition of memorabilia has opened in Darwen Library to promote the annual gala.
Items on show in the foyer of the library include photographs featuring gala scenes over the years, programmes, trophies and medals, newspaper cuttings, and a painting.
Chairman of Darwen Gala Committee John Sturgess said: "Most people in Darwen have happy memories from past galas. We hope the display will help bring some of them back. There are lots of photographs, so many will recognise themselves, friends and family."
The gala will be on Saturday, August 21. Programmes featuring details on all the entertainment are available this week. To book a last-minute stall ring Damian on 01254 760468 or to enter a float, vehicle or arrange to walk in the road parade ring Bob on 01254 706510 or Steve on 01254 774804.
