Following the success of last year's Christmas exhibition in Pru Green's
delightful house, we are putting on an even bigger and better show of crafts and
pictures this Christmas, with a sensational selection of the best work by twenty
three
local artists and craftsmen, eight of whom live in Wivenhoe. We've invited twelve of
the most popular exhibitors from last year to show their work with us again,
naturally including Pru, whose individual and colourful ceramics were the stars of
the show.
Other artists returning to the gallery include: |
