The annual exhibition by members of the Community of Malta Artists to Gozo, is now open to the public in the Citadel, Victoria, until the 28th of February.
Visitors will be able to view over 100 works in a variety of media: sculptures, ceramics, and paintings in many styles.
The organisers said that this year the exhibitors have been asked to produce works reflecting a highlight of this time of year: Carnival, so expect some images of vibrant colour, fancy dress, and grotesque masks, lavish late-night parties, a colourful, ticker-tape parade of allegorical floats presided over by King Carnival (ir-Re tal-Karnival), marching bands and costumed revellers.
The exhibition will also reflect place: geographic and historic, so scenes of the Citadel and views from it.
The exhibition is open from 9.00am to 3.00pm every day, over 2 floors of the lower halls 1 to 3, and 5, which are next to the Cathedral Museum, and it includes many significant works by 23 Gozo and Malta based local and international artists.
