Heather Parker, Craft Development Officer for Ards Borough Council is looking forward to the exhibition:xa0“This lively exhibition of mixed pieces captures the transition of the pupil’s artistic development. xa0Each piece tells a bit of the story of this journey, and what they have discovered along the way. xa0I would fully encourage members of the public to take the time to come along and view this colourful and creative show.”
