Thank you to everyone who contributed to, visited and supported the Percival Guildhouse Art & Craft Exhibition.

Nearly 500 people visited the exhibition during its 10 days at the Floor One Gallery.  Judging by the comments that were made, visitors enjoyed the exhibition very much and thought it was a wonderful display of local talent.

It gives the Guildhouse and its students a real buzz to hear the exhibition described as "inspiring, amazing, delightful, stunning and beautiful".  We are delighted to hear comments like, "So much talent" and "A wonderful variety of art, great to experience".  Other people commented that the exhibition was "well laid out" and that there was "brilliant art work" and "excellent exhibits".  The "fabulous quality of work" was also commented on.

Thank you to everyone who made it possible.
