Title: Eye Create
Artist Group: Newport Youth Service

Following on from the huge success of the 'Eye See' SuperDragon Project, Newport Youth Service has put together an exhibition, aptly named 'Eye Create', to celebrate the wealth of artwork created by young people of Newport.

This mixed media exhibition has come from different projects within Newport Youth Service, namely Youth Work in Schools, A.L.F. (Alternative Learning Forum), The Information Shop, and Youth Clubs across Newport.

These young people are inspired by their environment, and use art as a mean for creative expression. One of the young people involved via The Information Shop who took part in the project, said her art had helped give her an outlet for her frustrations she felt within her life.

The young people involved in the project are excited to have their work on display and feel it a great honour and achievement to have their work exhibited in the public arena.

The exhibition will be open between 11am and 3pm. Some of the young people who were involved in the project will also be available on site to answer to answer any questions about their artwork.
