Rye ARRCC charity set to stage art exhibition

The event will help raise vital funds for the charity which provides activities and respite care for disabled people in the Rye area.

The exhibition was opened yesterday (Thursday) by Rye artist Priscilla Ryan and is open today (Friday) and Saturday from 10am - 4pm.

Irna Mortlock, from ARRCC, said: “All works on show have been created and produced by the members and reflect the wide range of skills that they have acquired whilst attending the Centre, from water colour paintings to mosaic construction.

“This event will also offer you a unique insight into the memories of some of the ARRCC Elders, who have written their fascinating and moving stories for you to read.

“Colourful and original ceramics made at The School Creative centre by ARRCC members will be on show and for sale.

“The new innovation of a Christmas Fair selling mouthwatering goodies and Christmas gifts all adds up to an exciting and worthwhile event ffor this local Rye charity.”

The ARRCC centre is based at 1 Kiln Drive, Rye Foreign, at the top of Rye Hill.
