“The exhibition will bring extra vitality to Scarva Street and make use of premises which have been empty.

“A celebration event which will bring all the artists together will be held on Thursday 16 October at 7pm and everyone is invited to come along and view the superb artwork on show.”

The project is supported through the Banbridge Revitalisation Project which includes a range of initiatives such as a shop front improvement schemes, a free public wifi project and new signage for town centre car parks. The exhibition is part of the Autumn Arts programme and continues until October 31.
