An art exhibition entitled Creations will be held in the arts room at the Tresca Community Centre, Main Rd, Exeter tomorrow, 8.30am-4pm. The exhibition features the work of nine talented West Tamar artists: Alec Ellingsen, Isabel McCafferty, Justine Vaughan, Annette Stott, Jenni Ling, John Forbes, Deanna Gumley, Malcolm Massey and Libby Simmons. This one-day only exhibition showcases how far these artists have come from their humble beginnings, after many workshops and tutoring by other talented local and intrastate artists. The artists also form part of another group called Tresca Art Group, which meets every Friday, 9.30am-1pm. There will watercolours, acrylics and mixed media and each artist will have their own piece of wall to showcase their artwork. For enquiries call Libby on 63944426.
