The Lewes MP opened the Christmas hang with the cutting of a winter ribbon and invited the guests, including the High Sheriff Miles Jenner, to view the artwork on display.

Maria Caulfield MP said “It was a pleasure to be able to open the Christmas hang at the Chalk Gallery in Lewes. I would encourage anyone with an interest in artwork by local artists to go along and have a look at some of the fantastic pieces on offer.”
