Saturday 6th May to Sunday 5th November – Picturing Sheffield: Rivelin Valley Artists

This new display at Weston Park Museum shines a spotlight on a remarkable, yet little-known, community of amateur and professional painters established in Sheffield’s Rivelin Valley in the 1920s. More information about the Rivelin Valley Artists is available on the Rivelin Trail website.  http://rivelinvalley.org.uk/trail/
