The exhibition has been arranged by the Barewall Gallery in Burslem, who wanted to raise the already growing awareness of The Potteries born artist, Arthur Berry with the good people of Leek, Staffordshire Moorlands and Derbyshire.
Barewall said: "We have found a steady interest in Arthur's work from all over the country building on the exhibition with Lowry earlier this year at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery and since the appraisal on The Antiques Roadshow aired in April where he was tipped as one to collect by expert Dendy Easton previously Head of Sotheby's Picture Department.
