Metafour Exhibition 23-29 August 2017

And then there were three: Sarah Ackroyd, Rachele Laurenson and Jacqueline Summer are Metafour!
We are a group of women artists whose work is inspired by a deep connection with local landscape and the trees, birds and animals that inhabit it. Each of us has an area of expertise including ceramics, printing and painting.

We look forward to welcoming you to our bi-annual exhibition 23-29 August 10-5 each day (Private view to be announced) at Horsebridge Arts & Community Centre, 11 Horsebridge Rd, Whitstable, CT5 1AF
