NINE undergraduates from across Yorkshire who study at Batley School of Art, are making a right exhibition of their talents.

The students have opened their own art gallery, in Horbury near Wakefield.

The students hope to offer display space to artists from across the region and also hope to finance their own show in London when they complete their undergraduate course in 2006.

The group consists of Bob Milner, 32, Graham Smith, 48, John Mitchell, 44, Rose Johnson, 44, Daniel Peter, 22, Shaun Exley, 21, Lynsey Smith, 20, Stephen White 19 and Phil Cawood 21. They are all in their second year of a BA course in Fine Art for Design.

Already one local primary school has booked a place for an exhibition of pupils' work.

The gallery can be contacted by calling 07762 657651.
