Each month we'll be displaying the work of several local artists or photographers - professional and amateur - so if you want to have an article on you and your work, or courses you;re running or an upcoming exhibition, just 'Let Us Know'. In time we'll be offering the ability to submit your own features and/or maintain the artist's directory, so keep checking back and soon you'll be able to register in the Eye Arts section.

This month, we've got a feature on some courses being run by local painter (etc!) John Parker and also the indomitable 'Dove Players' who have a panto coming up and are on the lookout for dames, musicians, prompts - oh, the list is endless... (oh, no it isn't!)
