“We had a private viewing on Thursday night,” said church warden Kevin King.

“It went very well and it was attended by more than 50 people.

“There are all sorts of art in this exhibition. The variety is enormous.”

Friends of Leverington Church is supported by Wisbech Art Cub who lent use of the screens.

“We’ve been trying to encourage children over the age of six to put paintings in for a while now,” he added.

“Three years ago we started and now we have 10 or more.

The standard every year seems to go up and up. Some of them really are terrific!”

Chairman Mary Watt organised the exhibition which was opened by Dennis Pickles.

Organisers added: “We have received an amazing response for art work from the local community; there are so many talented folk in our area.

“We’d love you to come and see their work, and if you’re looking for something original to put on your wall, exhibits can be purchased at very reasonable prices.”

The display is open until Sunday (24) from 10am until 5pm on weekdays and 12pm until 5pm on Sundays.
