This show is worth a flutter

BUTTERFLIES are the inspiration for a free art show at Winchester Discovery Centre.

Butterfly Summer features work by local artists inspired by the insects and their environment, particularly the areas of chalk downs that form much of the landscape around Winchester.

The work in the City Space gallery will include watercolours, oils, prints and jewellery. The show has been organised by Winchester City Council's museums service in partnership with the Hampshire branch of UK Butterfly Conservation.

Butterfly Summer runs until Sunday, August 31. Opening times: Monday - Friday 10pm-6pm, Saturday 10am-5pm and Sunday 11am-4pm.

Admission is free. There will be activities for children, including butterfly puzzles, games and quizzes.

A series of butterfly talks takes place each Saturday at 2pm until August 23. And you can take the opportunity to see the real thing by joining a guided walk of Magdalene Hill Down reserve near Winchester.
