Medway Libraries are hosting an exhibition, about forgotten artists of the Medway area during May and June. 

The exhibition covers the work of Richard Dadd, Henry Hopper, Charles Spencelayh, Donald Maxwell, Frank Algernon Stewart, Henry Hill and Evelyn Dunbar. Their lives were as event-filled as they were varied, as two of the artists worked during war time and produced work inspired by their experiences. If you were thinking that there were no artists in the Medway until the 1970s, this exhibition proves otherwise! The exhibition will be at Strood library during May and will move on to Wigmore library at the beginning of June, where it will stay until mid-July.
