Sarah Filmer, fine art lecturer at Solent University, said: “In my tenth year of running this module I am just as excited as I was in my first year to see what this talented group of artists put together for their first major public exhibition.

“This exhibition is for everyone and I would highly recommend joining us in the square for this exciting and diverse exhibition.”

The show will include paintings, 3D installations, digital media, and mixed-media works.

It is free to attend and open to the public daily from 12pm to 6pm.
