A church in Oldham is set to host an art exhibition featuring the works of artist Jez Thomas.

The Human One art exhibition is travelling the UK this summer and will be stopping at St Anne's Church in Royton in September.

The exhibition features 30 originals and prints by Mr Thomas, who is the artist in residence at St Mary's Priory in Abergavenny in South Wales.

His work explores the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

Reverend Elizabeth Devall, the vicar of St Mark's Heyside and St Anne's Royton, first came across his work on social media during lockdown and leapt at the opportunity to show his work at St Anne's Church.

St Anne's is already home to Dachau Christ, by Liverpool sculptor Arthur Dooley, and some unique clay Stations of the Cross.

The Human One exhibition is accessible to the public for three open weekends from Saturday, September 9 to Sunday, September 24.

The exhibition is open from 10am to 4pm on September 9, 16, and 23 and from 1pm to 5pm on September 1, 17, and 24.

Refreshments and children's activities will also be available at the exhibition.

The church is welcoming schools, colleges, community groups, or individuals at other times throughout September, either during the day or evening, by prior arrangement.

For more information or to book a visit outside of the open weekends call reverend Elizabeth Devall on 07725 739506 or email revlizdevall@gmail.com.
