What a fab exhibition! We were overwhelmed by the work submitted to the exhibition. Thank you to everyone who delivered their work to us at the gallery. Lizzy and I spent a very happy Thursday putting up the show, with many a “oooo” or “ahhh” as we unwrapped the artworks. Here are just a few photos of the exhibition. The exhibition runs until Saturday 5th Dec, come and do a little christmas shopping or come just to be inspired!
