The artistic talents of young people and children will be showcased at an exhibition at Worcester Cathedral.

The popular Young Voices New Visions event, organised by Severn Arts, runs from Sunday, May 26 to Sunday, June 23.

It will spotlight the talents of young artists from 53 schools across Worcestershire and six community groups, all responding to the theme 'The Sky Above Us and the World Beneath our Feet'.

Jen Loffman, community producer for Severn Arts, said: "Children and young people have such a brilliant and unique outlook, and this exhibition is all about showcasing that.

"We want to encourage children and young people from all communities across the county to get involved, to be proud of their creativity, and enjoy having their artwork on display in a very prestigious building."

This year, Georgia Rowe, a fine arts graduate from the University of Worcester, has been appointed as emerging curator.

She will work with Richard Webb and Steven Thomas to bring the annual exhibition to life.

Ms Rowe said: “I’m very delighted to be this year’s emerging curator and to be a part of an exhibition that celebrates new artistic perspectives for young creatives.

"I'm looking forward to indulging in my own curation capabilities and to learn new skills that will help me progress in my own creative journey.”

A free drop-in creative arts workshop will take place on Tuesday, May 28, in the Chapter House, run by Spare Room Arts' Sarah Edwards.

During the workshop, participants will collaborate to make a large artwork piece to be displayed in one of the Cathedral windows.

Marissa Ryland of Worcestershire Wildlife Trust said: "We are really excited to be part of the Young Voices, New Vision exhibition.

"At Worcestershire Wildlife Trust we believe children should be curious and creative in their learning to truly be able to explore, understand and care for the natural world."

The exhibition is managed by Severn Arts, free to the public, and funded by Worcestershire County Council.

It is open to visitors during regular Cathedral visiting hours.
