Ryde Arts Collective
goes

Festive

T

he Ryde Art Collective held a recent
exhibition at Quarr Abbey - ‘TRAC
Goes Festive’ - which ran 26 November – 1
December 2015. The exciting handmade
artwork displayed was extremely popular
with members of the public and fellow
artists alike.
TRAC was formed over two and half years
ago and is a non-profit making group of 17
artists and craftspeople formed to give local
professional creative people an opportunity
to work and exhibit together.
Members are predominantly Ryde based,
producing contemporary art of high quality
including painting, photography, pastels,
mixed media, printing, ceramics and
polymer clay.
They stage two major exhibitions each
year which take place in spring and autumn
with smaller ones throughout the year at
various venues across the Island, and more
recently on the mainland.
