Inspiring Leamington venue showcases talent

Members of the Association of Midland Artists are also offering the exhibits for sale.

Among them is Katherine Barker, who organised the display. She said: “This is an exciting showcase for locally produced art by established artists. Bath Place, based in the Old Library, is an inspiring venue to exhibit in with loads of historic links.”

Curated by the association’s newest member Tammy Woodrow (pictured), who works for the Pump Room gallery, the exhibition, which is on until February 24, also includes the work of Margot Bell, Pat Carpenter, Sheila Connor, Libby January, Moira Lamont, Ann Power, Norma Taylor, Nancy Upshall, Jane Williams and Tammy herself.

The AMA is concerned with the production and appreciation of contemporary art. Painters, sculptors, printmakers and potters are encouraged to join, exhibit their work and enter local and national ‘open’ competitions.

AMA organises annual shows in Trinity Church in Leamington and meets ten times a year in the Baptist Church Hall to hear a programme of speakers.
