A Blending of Worlds
Stella and Kelly want to capture the imagination of visitors in this joint exhibition. Although quite different in their approach, they unite in the nature of their work and want to transport the visitors away from reality and into a fantasy world, in which they both, in their own way, live happily, most of the time!

Sir Alfred East: Centenary Exhibition
This celebration of the opening of the Alfred East Art Gallery will provide a rare opportunity to see the gallery in all its glory, showing the original exhibition of 1913 when it was first opened. The original paintings that East donated to the town of Kettering will be shown in the same positioning as he requested at the time as we try to replicate the grand opening ceremony.
