28 February - 30 March 2008

 

The People’s Show 2008 has been selected by a group of disabled adults from North East Somerset.  The group based at Connections Day Services, meets every week to paint and learn new techniques, on a course run by the Bath and North East Somerset Community Learning Service.

 

The students visited the Victoria Art Gallery as part of the course and became involved in the exhibition.  Everyone enjoyed the opportunity to see pictures which are not on show in the gallery and choose a favourite painting or two.  Each person has contributed some of their own work to the exhibition.
