Creativity of art and crafts students is being celebrated at an exhibition in Rugby.

Rugby Mayor Nooria Sayani attended a preview of the launch of The Percival Guildhouse Art & Craft Exhibition.

Work on show from the art and craft courses features everything from watercolour to acrylic, woodworking and sewing.

Cllr Sayani said: “The diverse creative arts scene in Rugby is something we need to celebrate and continue to develop for future generations. Inter-generational art that inspires all.”

He thanked the Mayor and Councillor O’Rourke for their support and endorsement of the Guildhouse.

The exhibition is at Rugby Art Gallery & Museum’s Floor One Gallery from now until June 27, 10am – 4pm.
