 It takes place throughout the second week in December and for the whole of January. This year it will run from Saturday December 14th 2019 - Sunday 26th January 2020.

Each day The Harris Museum and Art Gallery will be open for the general public from 9am - 6pm. Admission is free just come with an open mind and an appreciation of local talent.

 The exhibition is energetic and quirky, full of positivity and colour. This year it will include a rich mix of artwork including the following eight subjects:-

2.  Digital
3.  Installation
4.  Sound
5.  Sculpture
6.  Photography
7.  Textiles
