Nicky said:
“I am delighted to be exhibiting at the Nuneaton Museum and Gallery.
“It’s a lovely space and a wonderful opportunity to take a little step back and see the artworks in a slightly wider context.’’
Cllr Brady Hughes, Portfolio Holder for Leisure and Culture, said:
“We are delighted to have Nicky’s fabulous work in our gallery, and we are particularly pleased that the show coincides with the Railway 200 celebrations this year.
