Jill BurgessMandurah Coastal Times

THE Stretch Festival invited festival-goers to share what the theme of Home means to them.

Artists from Ability Arts are exhibiting work at Falcon Library based on the theme as seen through their eyes.

Ability Arts is a Mandurah-based program for people living with a disability who explore their creativity through the arts, craft, pottery, music, yoga and drama.

Key artworks on display include a large-scale mosaic Living by the Sea, inspired by the local environment and wildlife, The Colours of Mandurah, a collaborative painting using the colours of west coast sunsets.
