More than 100 pieces of original artwork is set to be on display this week.

The work from schools, individuals and local organisations is set to be on display at St John’s Church in High Road, Epping, on Friday (July 10).

The artists, who are aged 9 to 23-years-old, will be presented with awards following the launch at 6.30pm.

The event is hosted in partnership between the Rotary Club of Epping and St John the Baptist Church.  

Event Organiser Roger Lowry says “We consider it important that the Church and the community help young people grow and develop.

"The wide age range of the artists represented here is deliberate, so that perhaps the very youngest may be inspired by the ideas and skills of the older artists.”
