Pure joy! I’d pay for that picture on our office wall! 🤩

A picture so good, we had to frame it🖼️

We stepped into the artwork for KettFest on Saturday and the response was incredible. A massive thank you to the almost TWO THOUSAND people who came to Manor House Gardens - we chatted about art, our October reopening plans, got silly and had a fantastic time.

Kettering Library's Spoken Word Stage brought the poetry and we brought the art. This was by far our busiest KettFest and we couldn't be happier😊

Shout out to all those that made it happen - Kettering Town Council, Laugh Out Loud Theatre Company and Love Kettering plus the volunteers from Friends of Kettering Art Gallery and Museum and Friends of Kettering Library ❤️

Let's do it again next year🎉
