The scheme started back in 1999, when artists and craft makers from across the county came together to put their studios ‘on the map’.

It transformed into an exhibiting group in 2016, with members enjoying successful exhibitions at Gunby Hall and the Chapter House at Lincoln Cathedral.

Sheila Pearce, who is coordinating the exhibition, said: “We are delighted to have been invited back to Gunby Hall exhibition space which is a delightful setting for members’ work.

“It is an opportunity for visitors to see a diverse range of work including painting, ceramics, sculpture, textiles, illumination, drawing and glasswork by some of Lincolnshire’s popular artists and crafts-makers.”

Admission to the exhibition is included in the hall/garden admission price. It will open from 11am to 5pm daily.

In July, the exhibition will also be heading to The Chapter House, in Lincoln.
