This year’s Contemporary Craven Christmas exhibition at Skipton’s Craven Museum has attracted 45 professional artists.

The selling exhibition showcases the work of artists who live or work in Craven and is organised by Craven District Council’s cultural services team.

This is the fifth year it has taken place and each year new artists emerge.

“The quality of both the new and the established artists continues to rise. The work just gets better and better,” said Councillor Ken Hart, lead member for culture.

And, through the Own Art scheme run by the Arts Council, the museum – based in Skipton Town Hall – can offer interest-free credit for ten months on purchases more than £100.

The exhibition runs until Monday, December 21.

All of the works on show are for sale and admission to the exhibition is free.
