A collection of local artists' work will be going on display at John Lewis this month.

From now until 25 November, members of the Swindon Photographic Society will be exhibiting their work at John Lewis, Mannington Retail Park.

All art displayed will be availale to purchase from John Lewis, with a percentage of the takings donated to The Disabled Photographers' Society.

Daniel Thuysbaert, Partner and Regional Project lead at John Lewis said: "I am delighted that John Lewis and Partners, Swindon at Mannington Retail Park is working with the Swindon Photographic Society to host an exhibition of photographs from their members. All pieces of work will be for sale with a percentage of proceeds being donated for the benefit of The Disabled Photographers' Society.

"It is particularly exciting to see pieces of photographic art produced by local talent on show in our shop. Many of the pieces are taken using cameras we sell, namely Canon, Nikon and Olympus brands and can really showcase what can be achieved with this technology. I hope the exhibition will inspire our customers to get snapping some of their own works of art.”
