Community Gallery

The 'Life and Times of a War Time Art Student, an exhibition of work by Kate Herbert' exhibition is currently on display in the Community Gallery.

Exhibition information

This exhibition shows how a working class girl from Lower Broughton, Salford, realised her dreams and ambitions by passing a scholarship to Salford Art School. It was when Kate was an evacuee at the beginning of the Second World War that her artistic ability was spotted by a teacher. Throughout her later and family life she has continued with her artwork and creative writing.

This exhibition brings together her artwork and stories from her days at Salford Art School during the war to the present day.

To see more of Kate's work visit Chapel Street and Hope United Reformed Church on Chapel Street, open Thursday from 12.00pm to 2.00pm and Sunday from 12.00pm to 4.00pm.

For more information please visit the Chapel Street Community Arts website.

This exhibition is on display from Saturday 4 February until summer 2012 (end date to be confirmed).
