The Exeter Arts Hub's latest exhibition previewed on Monday evening. A crowd of about 30 [by the time I left] were entertained at the St Thomas venue by a variety of works in a range of media. From being greeted outside the door by Simon Nelder's huge metal dragon to his own delicate musing on a dead bird in porcelain upstairs, curator Adam Graddon ensured there was something for art lovers of all stripes.
The exhibition has been billed as showcasing hidden talent, but this has more than a whiff of modesty! Anyone attending Exeter Open Studios or even the RAMM last year will be...
This year's Exeter Age UK's Summer Fete promises to be better than ever.
Alongside stalls selling handmade items there will be classic vehicles, lots of live music, morris dancing, bouncy castles, games and competitions, children's activities and even training with Exeter City Football Club... and much more.
Not only that, you will be able to sample delicious refreshments including cakes, traditional cream teas and a beer tent - certainly something to tempt everyone!
It's all happening on Saturday 6 July at St Thomas Pleasure Ground, between noon and 4pm.

In the summer of 1914, Exeter City Football Club became the first English team to embark on a tour of South America. The tour involved playing five matches in the Argentine and three in Brazil, including the honour of playing the first ever Brazilian national team.
Later this year Exeter City FC begins to celebrate the centenary of the tour and as part of the preparations the Supporters’ Trust ‘Community’ working group, with help from the University of Exeter, are archiving text, photographs and film to form part of an exhibition to be held at St James’ Park.
Welcome to Jenny Eclair’s new stand-up show. After thirty years in the business she should vaguely know what she’s doing? Professional Grumpy Old Woman, writer and panto star; Eclair has been round the block that many times she’s lost count.
Touring as a stand-up gives Eclair enormous pleasure. It also gives her dreadful varicose veins, but most importantly it gives her partner (St Geof) a bit of a break.
Help him keep her out of the house, by supporting this show!
