Speaking on the night, project creator Aaron Andrews said, despite the weather, over 100 people turned out to watch the show, and admitted working on the project had given him a new perspective on his home town.

The 70th events continue this weekend and next at the Kingdom Centre where a special exhibition on the work of town artist David Harding will take place.
