Spring art exhibition

For those with decided leanings towards landscapes and pottery, this year's spring art exhibition of the Nelson Suter Art Society must have been a thrill. The main art theme appeared to be landscapes and included in the big catalogue were many lovely Nelson scenes. The potter's craft was also well supported and a section on ceramic jewellery found a ready market.
