A new exhibition will open in Douglas this Saturday, showcasing work from the Island's Creative Network.

Artists were challenged to create a piece of work about what 'home' means to them.

The 65 selected pieces include drawings, paintings, ceramics, mixed media, photography and sculpture.

Carola Rush from the Creative Network says the group is run by artists, for artists, with the aim of promoting the rich diversity of artwork produced within our Manx creative community.

'HOME' opens at the Manx Museum on Saturday, which is open daily from 9:30am-4:30pm.
