'Going Home UK'
by Sir Peter Blake
a signed limited edition of 150 original silkscreen prints
Each print has been hand signed by Sir Peter Blake CBE and will be sold to benefit Teenage Cancer Trust. A US version will be available to purchase at a later date to benefit Teen Cancer America. The print measures: 67cm x 68cm'Going Home UK ', has been printed at Coriander Studio London using 410gsm Somerset radiant white satin paper, with each image having 22 colours screen printed with a selected spot high gloss varnish.
On 15 March 2024, Mark Knopfler will release a new, special recording of his anthemic ‘Going Home (Theme From Local Hero)’, to raise funds for Teenage Cancer Trust and its American equivalent Teen Cancer America.
CLICK HERE TO VIEW AND PURCHASE
Performed by Mark Knopfler’s Guitar Heroes, produced by his longtime collaborator Guy Fletcher (who has edited the contributions into a 9 minute piece), the track features an unprecedented line-up of some of the greatest guitarists in history. ‘Legendary’ does not begin to cover it - David Gilmour to Ronnie Wood, Slash to Eric Clapton, Sting to Joan Armatrading, Bruce Springsteen to Pete Townshend, Nile Rodgers to Joan Jett, Brian May to Tony Iommi, Sam Fender and many more jaw dropping names.
And, in a great honour, the track opens with Jeff Beck’s final recording.
Roger Daltrey, Teenage Cancer Trust’s Honorary Patron and co-founder of Teen Cancer America (with Pete Townshend), added harmonica, and Beatles icon Ringo Starr is on drums along with his son Zak Starkey, their two drum tracks switching from one to the other, revealing an unmistakable family style. Sting completes an extraordinary rhythm section on bass.
With artwork designed by Sir Peter Blake (The Beatles, The Who, Band Aid, Paul Weller etc), this release is a landmark in rock music history.
Current Show
DEBBIE CRANE - OPEN HANDS
26 JANUARY - 1 MARCH 2024
Born in Amsterdam in 1964, Debbie Crane moved to Jersey with her family as a young child, since then the Island has been her home.
Life and art are intertwined for Crane whose family, friends, and everyday local life appear in her work. Debbie Crane has a natural ability in drawing and painting.
Her approach is experimental, much like the children she teaches, making pictures in the moment and with a freedom to delve into the possibilities of colour and texture. What transpires is an authenticity that feels both direct and joyful.
Winner of the Jersey Summer Exhibition 2022, for her painting Greve, Open Hands will be Debbie Crane’s first solo show with CCA Galleries International.
We welcome you to this perfect antidote to the January blues as we open our 2024 programme with a remarkable exhibition full of colour and exuberance.
The show will be open until Friday March 1, 2024.
If you are unable to visit the exhibition in person click HERE to view the catalogue online.
Gallery opening times Monday - Friday 12:00 - 6:00 PM
Weekends by appointment only.

It’s #internationalwomensday and what a way we marked it last night with our ‘Pushing Boundaries’ event at the gallery.
Thank you to @traciodea and @balletjersey for providing us with an exciting fusion of art, movement and verse, dedicated to platforming creative women while seeking to raise funds in support of @jaarjsy.
Poems presented were humorous, emotional and hard hitting and Ballet D’Jerri star Tabitha Dombroski performed an enthralling solo piece choreographed by Tess Voelker and Katarzyna Kozielska.
Zoe Collins-Fisher from @jaarjsy said: “On behalf of Jersey Action Against Rape (JAAR) and the survivors of sexual abuse whom we serve, I extend our deepest gratitude for the generous support through the “Pushing Boundaries” event. The event’s dedication to amplifying women’s voices and celebrating local creative excellence not only inspires feminist joy but also provides invaluable resources for our cause. By choosing to dedicate this event to raising funds for our sexual trauma counselling services, CCA Galleries have demonstrated a profound commitment to supporting survivors on their journey towards healing and empowerment.”
CCA Galleries International is developing a programme of events for 2024, follow our Eventbrite page to be first to know when they go online. We hope to see you then! Link in bio.
