Incredible Frida Kahlo-inspired artwork on display at Knott End Library in stunning new exhibition
Everything you need to know...
A striking Frida Kahlo-inspired artwork is among a variety of creations currently on display at Knott End Library as part of a free community art exhibition.
The newly added piece was created by local resident and artist Zac Vout and has been displayed as part of the Fun Arts community exhibition. The artwork has since been sold following its successful public exhibition at the library.
The Fun Arts exhibition showcases a wide range of artwork created by talented local residents and remains free to visit until the end of August. Visitors are being encouraged to pop into Knott End Library to view the display, including the recently added Frida Kahlo-inspired pieces.
The exhibition stems from the community’s regular Fun Arts sessions, which are held at the library every Monday from 1pm to 3pm. The weekly sessions are free, drop-in and open to people of all skill levels, with no booking required.
The sessions are fully inclusive and supportive of individuals living with dementia and their carers, providing an accessible and welcoming opportunity for members of the community to take part in creative activities.
The Fun Arts exhibition offers visitors the chance to see work produced through the local community’s artistic activities, while the addition of Vout’s Frida Kahlo-inspired piece adds another distinctive work to the display.
With the exhibition continuing until the end of August, there is still time for residents and visitors to visit Knott End Library and see the collection for themselves.
The weekly Fun Arts sessions also continue to provide an opportunity for people to create their own artwork in a supportive environment, with participants able to attend without booking and regardless of their previous artistic experience.
