A POPULAR group of Kendal artists are holding their first retrospective and hoping sales will boost a local arts charity.

The Collection exhibition is Kendal Arts Community's next showcase and staged at Space2Create at The Factory, off Aynam Road, Kendal from Friday, March 16 until Sunday, April 15.

KAC co-ordinator, Zoe Baker, said: "Individual members of KAC have held exhibitions at Space2Create and it is a great space to display art.

“And we are also committing to donate a quarter of sales fees to Space2Create to help fund their tremendous activities."

Space2Create supports and helps people recovering from a range of physical and mental health conditions, by encouraging them to use their creativity.

Each of KAC’s active members is submitting up to three pieces of artwork - some of which have featured in previous exhibitions - for the Space2Create show.

Some of the artists will be manning the exhibition during the month to talk further about their work. For further information see Kendal Arts Community’s page on Facebook or visit www.kendalartscommunity.co.uk.

All are welcome to the Collection exhibition preview at Space2Create at 6.30pm on Friday, March 16.
