The third in our series of art exhibitions opened on 4th June 2009 and ran through to 23rd October. The exhibition featured the work of two Ugborough artists Andrew Miller and Anne Holway and photographic images by Steven Haywood - a staff photographer with the Western Morning News also an Ugborough resident. The exhibition was very well received and over 20 original paintings were sold over the period of the exhibition.
