Look out for Newhaven Art Space and Newhaven Library featuring artwork in their windows over the coming months. The gallery will showcase artists Sarah Pager, Helen Turner, Nick Marsh, and Nadine Feinson, and the library will showcase a new sculptural installation by Hanna Benihoud.
Newtopias, an exhibition of collage photography work created by local residents, is still being displayed in the windows of the old Peacocks building in the town square.
