Alex New said: Weve been so delighted with the success ofKingdom Arts and wanted to share this with others in the church and widercommunity. It fits well with the Thy Kingdom Come 10 days of prayer so thoughtwed put on an exhibition for three days during this period and invite peopleto come and see what weve been doing.

The grant enabled the team to buy a series ofprofessional-looking display boards some full size on wheels and others whichwill sit on tables.

Sue Ashby-Davis said: We couldnt have bought the boardswithout the support of the Kingdom People fund. Its meant weve been able toput the exhibition on in a way that really shows off the artwork and looksreally special. That was important to us as were trying to reach as wide anaudience as possible. We hope it will encourage people from the community tocome in and use the building more often.

Invites to the exhibition were sent to every church in thedeanery and two local schools also took up the invitation to come in to takepart in a trail, quiz and a workshop on star making. There was tea, coffee andcake available for visitors.

Alex continued: We hope that this exhibition promotes faithas well as showing what we do at Kingdom Arts. St Georges Church is a greatspace which really lends itself to a range of uses. If our first exhibitiongoes well, the plan is to keep developing it into an arts festival which willfeature drama, dance and musicians as well as our artwork!

Kingdom Arts meets on the 2nd Tuesday of eachmonth at St Georges Church, in Worcester from 9.30am 1pm. http://kingdom-arts.co.uk/
