The Pembroke Murals
Mrs Jeanne Lewis and her daughter attended a special presentation at Pembroke Town Hall to mark the 20th anniversary of the Pembroke Murals which adorn the walls of the building. The benches, gifted by Pembroke Town Council, were presented in appreciation of the impressive artwork created by Jeanne and her late husband, George Lewis, whose contribution continues to enrich the Hall two decades on.
The Mayor of Pembroke, Councillor Gareth Jones, joined by fellow councillors and volunteers from Pembroke Museum, presented Mrs Lewis with a Certificate of Appreciation and a bouquet of flowers in recognition of the couple’s lasting artistic legacy. Councillor Jones went on to say
"Pembroke is extremely fortunate — and deeply privileged — to be the home of this collection. Visitors who step into the Town Hall often pause in admiration, struck by the scale, the detail, and the storytelling woven into every panel. Many have said that these murals are unlike anything they expected to find here. They leave with a greater appreciation not only of our history, but of the talent and dedication of them both who captured it so beautifully".
George Lewis was President of Pembroke & Monkton Local History Society for many years and a founder member of Pembroke Museum.
