BUDDING performers were given tricks of the trade at a Hampshire dance and art centre.

Visitors to The Point's community open day in Eastleigh enjoyed a behind-the- scenes look at stage and film projection alongside workshops in salsa and belly dancing, stage make-up and film editing.

Marketing officer Alison Pinder said: "The day went really well and there really was something for everyone and for all ages.

"We had toddler twist dancing for children from 18-months, drama and arts workshops for older children and art clubs for adults as well."
