In celebration of Anne Brontë's 200th Anniversary, a mini art exhibition is being staged. Scarborough played an important part of her story, as well as being a favoured place, it is also where she died and is buried. Open to both amateur and professionals alike, artists received a page from a vintage edition of Anne's radical novel, 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall'. Their response culminating in two hundred original artworks - one for each year.

Organisers:  Eddie Lawler, Catherine Rayner, David Walford,  Lindsey Tyson and Tim Tubbs
