Over 80 exhibits will be on display at the event which aims to raise money for charities across the town.

Hartlepool Rotary Club is hosting the event on Thursday, May 11, from 6.30pm at Café ONE77 on York Road.

Since its foundation in 1923, the club has served the community through a number of fundraising activities including charity bike rides and Hartlepool’s annual Poppy Appeal.

More than 80 exhibits will be on show, including five works from artist and doctor Samir Abukhalil.

Hartlepool Rotary Club President, Jane Tilly, and members.

Alan Pearson, treasurer of the club, said: “There is a collective mix, most of which are low budget donations from local people.”

In the past, the club has raised money for food banks, youth organisations and youth camps.

Mr Pearson said: “The opening night is going to be when most people will turn up and there will of course be refreshments available.”

Adult tickets can be bought on the door for £5, with entry free for those under the age of 16.
