All the exhibiting artists - who work in a range of mediums including paint, ceramics, photography, print, textiles, and willow - live within a two mile radius of Emsworth Square.

Every year, a raffle is held for a prize donated by one of the artists, and 25 per cent of all sales of the artwork is donated to the community centre.

To date, the summer exhibition has raised more than £30,000.
