Five artists and five community groups have created artworks exploring the five senses, and their work will be on show in Bury’s Mill Gate centre from Monday to Friday next week (18-22 April).

They used their surroundings, Bury Art Museum’s collection and their own imaginations as inspiration over a series of workshops.

  • · The Jinnah Centre have recorded sounds inspired by Bury Art Museum’s collection and their daily lives with Alexander Douglas...

The exhibition will be from 12p to 4pm at Shop Unit 25, The Haymarket (between Yours and News Corner).
