First Site Open Art Exhibition 2015

We submitted 7 pieces of art from ARTCO (our art department) for the First Site Open Art Exhibition.
We visited First Site last Tuesday to see the work go up and to have our picture taken for the paper (and take some of our own whilst there).

The immediate impact of seeing 2 of our artists work on the first wall was brilliant and artist Bernadette Sloman basked in the glory of discovering her painting.

The Open Exhibition itself runs until November 22.
