This year was the 20th anniversary of DAB’s establishment, and Ms Terrell, as one of its founding members, was the ideal person to open the exhibition. 

The End of Year Exhibition offers DAB artists the opportunity to showcase the artwork that they have created during the year. 

Although there is no theme for the End of Year exhibition, the results are always impressive, with a massive and diverse range of subject matter and mediums.

This year, there are 47 exhibiting artists with over 350 artworks on display covering a wide range of mediums, including paintings (both watercolour and acrylics), drawings, mixed media works, pottery, glassworks, mosaics and felting. 

The exhibition includes a selection of unique “dyed landscapes” mixed media artworks, which resulted from a recent weekend workshop. 

Guests can also expect an increase in unique high-quality pottery pieces, from sculptures and vases to tableware, all with fabulous textures and glazes.
