This popular event returns on Saturday 29 June (2-6pm) and Sunday 30 June (11am-5pm)

Six venues (seven on Sunday) within a relaxed walking distance will once again be open to the public to view the artistic creations of some 25plus artists.

There will be work from professional and amateur artists including prints, paintings, pottery, leather work, sculpture, glass work, needle felting, knitted and crochet items and patchwork.

Some venues will have demonstrations of arts and crafts taking place and on The Green, visitors will be able to try their hand at some clay work.

There will be plenty of opportunity for everyone to stop for refreshments as both pubs will be open to welcome visitors, the very popular RT Café in the Village Hall will serve lovely homemade cakes and drinks both days, and on Sunday the addition of cream teas in the Seward Room will keep everybody fully refreshed.

This year the addition of work by six invited artists/makers will provide an even greater wealth of creativity for those attending.

The popular ‘TURNUP” prize will again raise smiles as entrants to the competition provide a piece of work that takes minimal effort and whose title is a pun of the work it portrays. The public are encouraged to vote for their favourite piece.

People will also be offered the opportunity to take park in the Trail Quiz answering a question at each venue. Those who complete the trail quiz being offered a food voucher for money off at the Five Bells pub and art prizes for young participants who answer questions correctly.

The artists/makers look forward to welcoming you.
