North East Connected

Hopping Across The North East From Hub To Hub

pn4540 CAS Summer ExhibitionTHERE’S a treat in store for art fans with the launch of a new show this week.

The Cleveland Art Society Summer Exhibition 2016 opens on Friday, August 12 and runs to Saturday, August 27.

The large show of wall-mounted artwork with accompanying prints and cards is now on display at Stokesley Town Hall.

The Middlesbrough-based Society is the longest running art group in the region.

Exhibition Secretary and contributing artist Alan Morley said: “We’re one of the most active and continuously existing art groups in the whole country – so we must be doing something right!

“We’re also enormously grateful to Stokesley Town Hall trust for hosting this big event in their spacious public upstairs hall each year – it’s been likened to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition where they bring ’em in and stack ’em high!

“The show really fills the walls and makes a change from our other shows in smaller galleries and museums.

“It’s a showcase of a huge range of talent and ability, and there really is something for everybody to enjoy.”

The Cleveland Art Society Summer Exhibition 2016 runs until Saturday, August 27 at Stokesley Town Hall from 10am to 4pm Monday to Saturday.

The show is closed on Sundays and from 10am to noon on August 15, 18, 22 and 25.
